HOFSTEDE MODEL

According to Hofstede Model, and taking into account each of the aspects I imagined that the score for Spain is as follows: -Power Dsitance:  This aspect is responsible for evaluating the country from the point of view of inequality. Because Spain is emerging from an economic crisis and its recovery is slow, I give it a high score of 75% . -Individualism: The higher this aspect, the more individualism there will be among its inhabitants. The Spanish are very faithful to their customs and protectors, I think they are mostly individualists (56%). -Maculinity:  This dimension determines what are the predominant aspects in a society, when the score is high it is considered a male society and is characterized by competition and the search for success. On the other hand, a score under society focuses on caring for others and highlights the importance of quality of life. So I give that score to Spain, since its compotiation I think it leans towards both sides. -Uncert

The other subculture belongs to the country of Colombia and they are called Wayuu. The Wayuu are located on the Guajira peninsula in northern Colombia and northeast of Venezuela in the state of Zulia, on the Caribbean Sea.

On the other hand, the Wayuu are mostly bilingual although a fraction of them in the middle and high Guajira is monolingual, their official language is Arawak. The Basques to work are involved in fishing, livestock and agriculture. Although its economy is based mainly on artisanal fishing and grazing, the Wayuu
