5. Most admired multicultural society?

I sympathize with the general sentiment and the big idea of peaceful harmony, but most admired? Multicultural?

It's not so easy to forget that there was actually greater cultural variety in America before the European monoculture invasion. If we want to discuss multicultural global society, we cannot start from European colonialism and cultural imperialism and the expectation of all of us becoming good Europeans or Euro-Americans.
