This is an example of Cultural Assimilation. Cultural assimilation is the process of integration of a small ethnic or cultural group into a different or larger community, for example, a group of immigrants. During the process, the minority group adopts the customs, lifestyle and social aspects of the majority group.
The process can be done in two different ways:
- Voluntary assimilation occurs when people adopt these changes voluntarily. This usually occurs with immigrant groups.
- The forced assimilation occurs when one group submits to another and forces it to acquire its cultural aspects. This was common when colonization processes were carried out.
