It is also interesting to see how natural environment influences cultural traits. Both from individual experience and analysis of history of humanity and geography. When I was living in Ural, I tended towards submissive-only behavior and totality of destiny. However, I still holded individualism, exploratism and creativity as core values besides harmony. And when I has been living in Southern countries with mild climate, I have become more communicative, friendly and opportunistic. Or is it just coincidence accompanied by ageing and development? Or both?

When I analysed history of monotheism and despotic models of rule, I came into insight that these originated in countries with extreme weather conditions, extreme natural resources scarcity and high population density in areas, where conditions are quite better. While rich arts, science and humanistic ideals with emphasis on individualism and variadic degree of cooperation originated in southern countries with rich soil, greenery and mild climate.

Oh absolutely! I think to deny the link between climate/geography and cultural norms/values is purely hard-headedness
