  Climate can have a significant effect in the culture of a population
(even though saying so is not always fully politically correct because
of some implications).

  In countries where winter is long and very cold, surviving is harder
than in countries where the climate is more moderate the entire year.
The climate causes a significant emphasis on agriculture and farming,
especially due to the harsh winter conditions. Surviving in such a
climate requires significantly more work. This inevitably affects the
culture of the people compared to warmer countries.
