This is a Cultural Preface to the Venezuela 101 history series. It is not designed to be entirely comprehensive, as no culture or people are all the same. But, it is designed to help listeners meet the people before they study their history, and in it, we cover:

1. Population, Identity & Diversity

2. Social Personality & National Character

3. Family & Social Structure

4. Gender Roles & Expectations

5. Language, Accents & Slang

6. Food as Cultural Identity

10. Humor, Survival & Street Smarts

11. Friendliness & Foreigners
