 Culture in Taiwan is somewhat similar to the US. Everyone has a cell phone. The internet is very popular. They produce their own Hip-hop artists but also listen to artists from the US like Eminem. They claim to have the highest density of 7-Eleven stores per person in the world. 

And of course they can enjoy a BigMac too!
