I don't think the cultural values were lost. Not completely. They're preserved by the people. Maybe the younger women don't wear burqa3s but we're very culturally aware. Probably more than our mothers and fathers, because they didn't feel a sense of urgency back then to preserve their identity like we do today.

The fact that we are the smallest minority in the country isn't helping either.

There's a funny part in the part three where he tells the women, "I'm afraid you'll take over everything."
