Many young people today know more about international pop or movie stars than about famous people in the history of their own country. Why is this? What can be done to increase young people’s interest in famous people in the history of their country?

In the present day, international
culture
has become increasingly popular among us.
Although
some national organizations try to promote the local
culture
, most people opt for movies and series from other countries. In
this
context, it is crucial to understand why some individuals have
this
preference and what are solutions should be implemented to deal with it.
First
and foremost, the main reason can be related to the advance of globalization since in any part of the world people can learn different facts and know a variety of cultures.
In other words
, with the presence of technology most individuals can appreciate not only movies but
also
books from any country.

influenced by international products.
Secondly
, another reason why some citizens would rather international
culture
is due to the leadership of these affluent countries. The more financial investment in the entertainment business, the more it will be appreciated for other ones.
In other words
, it is necessary money to promote international
culture
to other individuals.
For instance
, famous brands invest using all available resources
such
as social media, billboards, and television.
In addition
, there is much money circulating to promote their products.
Finally
, for these reasons the major solutions are the usage of national and local influencers and personalities to promote and endorse the local
culture
.
Furthermore
, society linked to schools could promote awareness and educational programs to demonstrate to the population the importance of their own history. Take some holidays as examples, some schools promote parties during Halloween week
instead
of teaching about the history of the
first
nation population in our country. In conclusion, international
culture
can have some benefits for us,
however
, the local
culture
is much richer and necessary to build a better place for the
next
generation since we need to learn to appreciate what is our, our nature, our history, our
culture
.
