Well most people do not understand Spanish people are not alike. They are all different and in some cases speak different types of Spanish. For example Mexico says "pastel" Puerto Rico says "bizcocho" pastel to puerto rico is an entirelh different food. The caribeans (Cuba,Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic) are most alike we eat most of the same foods, and have similar cultures. But Puerto Rico is more Americanized because we are part of the US and have US cultures and teachings. Puerto Rico also has Spanish (Europe,Spain) culture because they were colonized by the Spanish not English. They eat yellow rice with pigeon peas, pastel, pernil (roast pig), fried plantains...The Dominican Republic shared the island with Haiti but has no affiliation with their culture what so ever. Puerto Rico has ranges of people that vary from tall, white, blonde hair, blue of green eyes to talk darker people. D.R. Has talk darker people for a majority and Cuba has whiter talk people. Mexico, equador, Guatemala, Honduras, Peru, El Salvador, have similar cultures and form of speaking. Their native people are shorter, tanned with jet black pin straight hair. They eat similar foods like refried beans, black means, Mole, arroz dorado( mix of rice with black beans that causes it to be darker) taco, guinnea pig. Most of the talker lighter people of these coutties are of European decent. And the have many Indian villiages that do not speak Spanish but a native language. Columbia Argentina Venesuela are similar it's people are taller and tend to have lighter hair and blue or green eyes. They speak Spanish with accents and eat a separate form of food. Columbians are said to speak the best and proper Spanish of all. Brazil is sometimes considered a Spanish nation but it's more towards Portuguese, they speak a form ofvthat language. Sorry I don't have more details and this answer is not in anyway meant to be offensive to anyone. Some might percieve it that way since race is a sensitive topic now. But I wanted to give a feel of the different groups and their appearances.

Why do different subculture exist?

Many reasons,-Sociologist Willis (1977) suggested pupils form subcultures due to their limited opportunities in the education system.-Hargreaves (1973) suggested subcultures are due to negative labelling, people want to gain high status .-Sewell suggested black Caribbean students produced subcultures due to negative reactions from teachers and wanted to form some sort of defence mechanism.Could be to gain respect, due to labelling, due to teacher racism students feel they cant influence, due to preconceived expectations students feel they cannot influence, due to peer pressure, or just wanting to fit in somewhere...


Types of subculture in sociology?

although the question is a bit incomplete and I am uncertain about the answer I will give it a go... we could say that subculture in sociological discourses could be defined in terms of : 1. ethnicity (ethnic minority with its own individual culture), 2. class (eg. working class subcultures), 3. deviance (being different, escaping the social norm), and 4. youth (youth subcultures, usually interlinked with music and fashion etc). ...


How are subcultures related to cultural diversity?

When people within a culture are from different "mother" cultures, it creates cultural diversity and leads to subcultures in that some of the "mother" culture is practiced within the larger culture. For example, Chinese immigrants to the United States continue to practice some of the culture of China.
