    Does the climate of the place one was born have any role on culture?

    If a person was born in China, where it might be mostly cold most of the time, would that person fare well in a place where the climate is mostly warm or hot? And do both places share the same type of culture?

    Although Polynesia and Asia have similar sounds attached to them, does the cold climates of Asia, mostly the Orient(s), have the same kind(s) of cultures of those lands with Polynesian climate?

    Polynesia is roughly on the same latitudinal points on the map as Mexico is.

    Based on opinion alone I would say most definitely.

    How did people get onto the islands in the middle of the ocean so far away from the other islands and lands? The other islands heading towards
    China and Australia are nearer to a Larger Land than the Hawaiian Islands are. The Hawaiian Islands seem to not be 'near' to any Larger Land.

    Just kind of all by itself surrounded by water all by itself.. The other islands, like The Federated States of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Tuvalu, are all nearer to a larger Land Mass than the islands of Hawaii are.

    But definitely nearer to The U.S. / Mexico side than to the China / Australia Side.

    That is seclusion... Isn't it AMAZING that close to 1 million persons are walking back and forth on those tiny little islands??

    Nonetheless, they're still wonderful places.

    Not on language. If you go further North in Scotland, they might say, "A flindrikin of snaw". My Scottish girlfriend on the Scottish/English border has never heard of that, we just say, "We've had a little bit of snow".

    People in cold countries, say even down to -50°c, just get on with it. The ******* in Southern England grind to a halt when it drops below zero centigrade.

    Place of birth unlikely, place of upbringing certainly, though that will more be climate influencing the culture of the general regional society and that society influencing the people growing up there.
