101 of the Most American Things
Distinct Elements of American Culture
In honor of our nation's birthday, we've gathered 101 of the most American things we could muster. From pastimes to music, art, food, landmarks, traditions, institutions, and other cultural elements, these are the things that define our country.
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
America is a melting pot of diverse elements, both positive and negative. From the good, such as our enthusiasm for college sports, to the bad, like our pervasive drug advertising, we embrace the complexities of our nation.
Quirky and Everyday Americanisms
Our everyday lives are filled with uniquely American idiosyncrasies. From the ubiquitous yellow school buses to the puzzlingly wide gaps in toilet stalls, these seemingly mundane things are part of the fabric of our national identity.
International Fame and American Icons
America is undoubtedly one of the most famous countries in the world. This fame is due in part to our iconic attractions, such as the Grand Canyon and Mount Rushmore. These symbols of American pride and natural beauty draw visitors from far and wide.
