Naufragis,
I think I know what you mean and we talk about it. In addition these keywords could be useful: diversity, tolerance, unification, progress, social awareness.

Hi Naufragis,
When you go to the UK you travel within an EU country and you will find that the best you can do is be open to everything you experience. You will find that people in the UK pretty much have the same purposes in life as anywhere in the world, it's the small things that make the difference. British people tend to address you by your first name, they start the working day a little later than is common in Germany, they usually do more social talk than the Germans and they definitely laugh and smile more. There is a lot of those small differences and we should talk about them one at a time...
