there are little men with sticks inside the drum and they hit the drums with their sticks
You can find cymbals inside a drum kit. The number of cymbals is different in each drum kit, because there are different kinds of music. But all come with a Hi-hat unless it is only a drum kit with only drums.
It all depends on the kit, make, how many drums, what accessories you want.
A drum kit is another name for a set of drums, so to ask what makes a drum kit is like what makes a set of anything, pans, golf clubs, its down to the individual to buy what they think is the perfect set for them. A drum kit can be as many drums and accessories as you want, many years ago before the days of affordable imported kits, you would buy a bass drum + pedal, snare drum + stand hi-hats + stand supplied with stool, sticks and brushes. The idea you added extra drums as you learned. These days with affordable starter kits its normally 5 drums with stands and cymbals.
I suppose minimum would be a bass drum, snare drum and hi-hats
In drum kit lingo, a "fusion" kit refers to the size of size (diameter) of the drums in the "kit" (set of drums that you'd buy at a store, say Guitar Center) A fusion kit consists of smaller-sized drums compared to a non-fusion kit: 10 inch tom 12 inch tom 14 inch floor tom The 22" is the bass drum, and it is noted as a "22 inch fusion kit" as opposed to just a "fusion kit" because it is more common for fusion kits to come with a 20 inch bass drum, not a 22 inch.
