Cultural decline
Cultural decline refers to the process where the shared beliefs, customs, arts, and values of a society weaken or diminish over time. It can result from factors such as loss of traditions, decreased social cohesion, economic hardships, or external influences that erode established cultural practices. This decline may lead to reduced cultural identity and less diversity in expressions like art, language, and customs, affecting a society's sense of history and community. Essentially, cultural decline signals a decline in the unique ways a society understands and expresses itself.
