Ideas and inventions are introduced and sometimes even forced upon other cultures. An example of cultural spread through migration is when masses of people from Ireland moved to America and brought along certain aspects such as St. Patrick’s Day, Irish river dancing and the descendants of the Kennedy family. Dispersion of culture can also occur through trade, such as when the Europeans traded with the Americas. Europe provided domesticated animals, grains, citrus fruits, and of course, numerous diseases. The Americas provided pineapples, tobacco, corn and turkeys. Warfare spreads culture also, such as when Britain occupied India and the sport cricket was introduced. The last way culture can spread is through technology. An example is the phenomenon known as K-Pop, which spreads through YouTube, social media and online
