Culture

The culture of modern Zacapican is built on the foundations of ancient indigenous practices and the multitudes of external influences brought to the home country by decades of sustained immigration and centuries of intercontinental trade and exchange. The central pillar of Zacapine culture is the mélange of the native south Oxidental peoples who have intermingled with one another for millennia and integrated several ancient migrants such as the Nahuas and the Purépecha, some of the most prominent native peoples in the country. Ancient and medieval literary works, philosophy, religious tradition, cuisine and visual arts created through the centuries by these native cultures form the basis of the south Oxidental culture into which many external influences have been integrated over the years. The centuries of prosperity and interconnectivity under the rule of Aztapamatlan fostered intercontinental cultural exchange with some of the greatest civilizations from across the world, such as the Tahamaja of the Malaio, the Kayamuca of northern Oxidentale and Norumbia, and the Latins of Belisaria and northern Scipia, further enriching the culture of Aztapamatlan with their contributions and innovations. After two decades of civil war, post-Revolutionary Zacapican began its meteoric industrialization and rise to global significance, which brought waves upon waves of immigration into the country on an unprecedented scale. During the first half of the 20th century, millions of immigrants from eastern Belisaria, southern Malaio, Ochran and northern Oxidentale arrived in the ports of Angatahuaca and Quitzapatzaro, living in close proximity to one another and to the further millions of indigenous Zacapine peoples migrating from their isolated homelands in the interior to the burgeoning industrial cities. This created the conditions for a multicultural explosion of new genres of art, music, style and cuisine as dozens of ethnic groups from all over the world introduced one another to their own traditions and philosophies in these thriving melting pot cities. Through generations of cultural exchange and intermarriage, the cultures of Zacapican have blended together in the melting pot into a new distinctly Zacapine culture which is not fully homogenous but is no longer heterogenous either. Nahuatl has become the dominant language spoken by all Zacapine peoples, although many local dialects have emerged replete with loanwords from various foreign and indigenous languages. Cuisine likewise has both diversified and homogenized simultaneously as many foreign cuisines have become popular across Zacapican while incorporating ingredients and presentations more familiar to the native Zacapine palette. This phenomenon can be seen across all aspects of modern Zacapine society, which is increasingly made up of mixed-heritage peoples.
