If you want to know what a society celebrates all you need do is look at the pictures of who and what they put on their money.

US: war generals, capitalists, banks, bankers, federalists, slave owners.

Other countries: flora, fauna, suffragettes, scientists, influential women, explorers, birds, fish.
