Culture

Culture is the umbrella word for the combination of culture traits each Pops has, that distinguishes each other in terms of discrimination. Each country has a primary culture which establishes the benchmark to compare whose cultures are discriminated in each country, depending on the citizenship law enacted.
Cultures themselves do not have advantages or disadvantages between each other. Is just a way to distinguish and characterise different pops.

Culture traits

Each culture is characterized by 2 culture traits:

1 heritage culture trait
2 non heritage culture traits

Culture traits themselves do not have advantages or disadvantages between each other.

Heritage culture traits

From Vickypedia: "A type of Cultural Trait that specifies the general region of the world where the Culture originated. Certain Citizenship Laws consider Heritage Cultural Traits to be more important than other Cultural Traits when determining whether a Pop should be Discriminated Against or not."
Heritage culture traits are usually entitled "heritage" and are commonly associated with the ethnic group of that pop.

Non heritage culture traits

While Vickypedia has an entry for the previous example, these are often simply referred to as "a culture trait (which is not a heritage culture trait)".
Non heritage culture traits are commonly associated with the language spoken by that pop.

Discrimination

Discrimination itself causes discriminated pops to become radical and generate turmoil.
Discriminated pops often are target of events which lowers their standards of living.
Discrimination also discourages people to migrate to the countries where they are discriminated.

Secession

Non-primary cultures that face high turmoil in a country that controls their homelands may attempt to secede and form their own country. The following conditions must be met for a secession movement to begin:

The culture is not a primary culture of the country
The culture has over 50% turmoil in the country
The culture makes up at least 33% of the population of a state that is the culture's homeland
The culture's secession tag does not already exist

When these conditions are met there is a chance each week for a secession movement to begin; once a secession has begun it will progress towards civil war much like a revolution. When progress reaches 100% states that are the seceding culture's homeland and where the seceding culture makes up at least 33% of the population will break away and take on the tag of their corresponding cultural country, and in response their former controller will automatically and immediately initiate a diplomatic play to re-annex the secessionists.

Not all cultures appear to be capable of secession. Cultures that are not primary culture of at least one country do not appear to be able to secede.

The secessions brought about by the American Civil War are a special case that do not use the mechanics of cultural secession. See America for details.
