Britain has a long history (of course it cannot be compared with ours), so it has a rich etiquette culture. Because it was colonized by France, the upper class regards being able to speak French as a symbol of nobility. The UK is divided into four countries, Wales, Scotland, England and Northern Ireland. That's why it's called the United States of Great Britain. The English are relatively gentlemanly and polite, but they are more hypocritical, so they are more indifferent when things happen. Because the Scots have been historically backward and were conquered by England, they are relatively hostile to England. The Scots are enthusiastic and unrestrained, but relatively not as gentlemanly as the English, but they are real and generally not too hypocritical. Wales is smaller than Northern Ireland and has a smaller population, so its culture is less widespread. Generally speaking, when interacting with British people, you must pay attention to politeness, speak more compliments, and be trustworthy when doing things. British nightlife is mostly related to bars, and drinking parties are more frequent. As a Chinese, I would not be comfortable with it. But as an important communication opportunity, attending a party or going to a bar is the best way to experience the deep British culture and British way of thinking, and to quickly improve your English proficiency. Due to the effects of alcohol and the cover of darkness, people's dark sides are easily aroused. Therefore, British nights are relatively unsafe and cases occur frequently. You must pay attention to safety at night because there is no etiquette at this time. So pay attention to the time and frequency when attending parties and going to bars.
The United States has a short history. It has already entered the industrial age during the founding period and has no legacy of feudal ideas. Therefore, etiquette is simpler than that of the United Kingdom. However, this does not mean that the quality of Americans is not as good as that of the British. It is just that the etiquette is not as complicated. and refinement. The United States is really a small United Nations, where all countries and nationalities can find labels. Therefore, freedom is the biggest feature of this country, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many elements of civilization. Americans are not as conservative as the British (although the British are already more open than the Chinese), and it is generally easier to deal with Americans. In daily life, first pay attention to your own quality. Different age levels and cultural levels have different qualities. You should treat them differently and don't think that everyone has qualities. Secondly, you should pay attention to the religious background and do not violate the other party's religious taboos. Generally speaking, you can be very free when dealing with Americans. They are all kinds of people and have no clear national identity. The United States is a complicated country, so you must pay attention to self-protection and be careful when making friends.
When it comes to business, it is difficult for Westerners to do it. The characteristics of capitalism are that interests come first. At the same time, due to different political backgrounds, you should not be too angry about certain things, because they may not understand the current situation in China. If you are simply discriminating against Chinese people (which is rare now), I hope you will safeguard the dignity of your own nation. All in all, when interacting with people from these two countries, you must pay attention to daily etiquette. Our country is indeed not very good in this regard. You must be trustworthy, show your strength, and find people with the same hobbies and the same language to become friends. At the same time, you must pay attention to your own safety. Don't think that all British and American people are very qualified. There are also scum.
