In general, researchers consider that it has three main components, in Europe, North America and Latin America. [...] However, Latin America has followed a quite different development path from Europe and North America. Although it is a scion of European civilization, it also incorporates, to varying degrees, elements of indigenous American civilizations, absent from North America and Europe. It has had a corporatist and authoritarian culture that Europe had to a much lesser extent and America did not have at all. Both Europe and North America felt the effects of the Reformation and combined Catholic and Protestant culture. Historically, Latin America has been only Catholic, although this may be changing. [...] Latin America could be considered, or a sub-civilization within Western civilization, or a separate civilization, intimately related to the West and divided as to its belonging to it.|via=http://www.mercaba.org/SANLUIS/Historia/Universal/Huntington,%20Samuel%20-%20El%20choque%20de%20civilizaciones.pdf (in Spanish)}}</ref> Os países representados em azul escuro (incluindo a maior parte dos [[Estados-membros da União Europeia|Estados-membros]] da [[União Europeia]]) foram predominantemente influenciados pela [[mundo greco-romano|civilização greco-romana]] e pelo [[cristianismo]], além de moldados por intensa [[Diáspora europeia|imigração e colonização europeia]].]]
