Cultural Genocide is a term that describes the extermination of one small culture by a larger culture. Due to the lack of understanding, specifically by Western Cultures, caused many small cultural techniques, languages, and other ritual to be forbidden and eventually abolished. However, a small percentage of a culture is preserved by practitioners who still abide by it; however, later generations become influenced by more modern cultures that the old culture eventually becomes extinct.
