Can you tell me about the Middle Eastern culture and values of the people?
<|assistant|>
The people of Middle Eastern culture highly value family and friendship, generosity, honesty and integrity. They place high value on hard work and often practice reciprocity, which is the idea that one must give back whatever they take, whether it be help or a favor. In many cases, the individual and the community is of paramount importance and collectivism is valued more than personal pursuits. Arab culture also highly values hospitality and entertaining and is often seen as a demonstration of honor and respect. Music, art, literature and food also play an important part in expressing and sharing their values.
