The cultures that have shown the most resistance to outside forces are those of Indigenous peoples, such as the Maori in New Zealand, the Native Americans in the United States, and the Aboriginal peoples in Australia. These cultures have been able to maintain their traditional ways of life despite centuries of colonization and oppression. Other cultures that have shown great resilience include the Amazigh people of North Africa, the Kurds of the Middle East, and the Tibetans of the Himalayas.
