Western

"Western" typically refers to the culture, values, and traditions originating from Europe and North America, especially those associated with the historical development of countries like the United States and those in Western Europe. It emphasizes individual rights, democracy, free-market economies, and often a focus on progress and innovation. In a broader context, "Western" can also relate to the arts, literature, and philosophies that have rooted in this region. While it has evolved over time, Western culture is often characterized by its emphasis on personal freedom, scientific inquiry, and secular governance.
