(1)A brief history/background on the country you have chosen. Understandably, many countries may have a vast history. Focus on what you perceive as the most important elements of the country’s history. Maybe discuss the origins/structure of the current government system, how old the country is, what language is spoken, the currency, etc. I’m looking for 2-3 slides of background on your country. Be sure to cite your sources on your reference slide. (2)How your chosen country ranks on the following dimensions of cultural variability:a.Individualism versus Collectivismb.Masculinity Versus Femininityc.Power Distanced.Indulgence Versus Restrainte.Long Term Orientation Versus Short Term Orientationf.Uncertainty Avoidance If you are unable to locate direct research indicating where your country aligns on these dimensions you need to do your best to provide research that supports your rationale for where you would assume your country would rank on these dimensions. Be sure to explain what each dimension is and also give specific examples for each of these dimensions. Also, make sure to cite your sources on your reference slide. (3)Faux Pas. List societal faux pas for the country you have selected. Be specific and give examples. 10-15 Faux Pas are ideal. Be sure to cite your sources on your reference slide.

Be sure to include cost and information about the included activities.A.Flight and accommodation details (and inter-country flights if applicable).B. Information about the country (Customs, currency, visa requirements, vaccinations, best time of the year to visit, etc.)C. Cost. Understandably, cost will vary depending on the time of the year. Do your best to provide your classmates with a rough estimate of the cost for the trip. Include flight(s), accommodations, tours, food, and anything else that may cost money for this trip. A breakdown and total cost would be an awesome thing to include! *Do some research online (sites like Tripadvisor, Fodors, Triptuner, to name a few, may be helpful – there are many resources available to help with planning), and talk with friends who may have already traveled to your chosen destination to help with this project. Include pictures! Most importantly, have fun with this assignment and learn something cool about a place you may actually be traveling to yourself in the near future!
