Modern western culture, I believe, is a lot more homogeneous, than for example modern American and modern Japanese culture. I don't believe that Japanese culture is soooo different, that is words that you have been using, or that it is completely unique.

The fact that Japan, unlike many African countries for example, is more developed. So we can still recognize it, but it's still different. It's more different than the modern culture of different European countries, or the USA. It is also easier, in my experience, to come into contact with through the internet, than the culture of other Asian, African or South American nations. I might have missed something, though.
