Minangkabau culture is a culture owned by the Minangkabau community and thrives throughout the region along the Minangkabau overseas territory.
This culture is one of the two great cultures in the archipelago that is very prominent and influential.
This culture has an egalitarian, democratic, and synthetic nature, which became anti-thesis for other great cultures, the feudal and syncretic Javanese culture.
Unlike most of the world's growing cultures, Minangkabau culture embraces a matrilineal system in terms of marriage, tribalism, inheritance, and so forth.
