Question

why might people who live on an island be able to preserve their culture for a long period without change?

Answer 1

in short because no other cultures are around you to influence cultural change. These people on the island would be a controlled factor. Not affected by anything else, the only thing that would affect their upbringing or culture is themselves. Whereas in the real world neighboring nations affect how we handle things diplomatically. This is not a factor for them. Hope this helps

Answer 2

They might be able to preserve their culture because they have nothing to rival their culture besides their own people, which is unlikely, also they most likely have no visitors from other places to rival their culture giving them time to strengthen their living within themselves.
