I don't think you know what "culture" means. It's not just stuff that people did in the past, it's what traditions are based around.
How do you think Iceland traditionally got food? They're not exactly surrounded by arable land are they?
This just in: tradition is an excuse to dress up and party, not do bad things.
"It's tradition, that makes it okay! Hip hip hooray it's Weasel Stomping Day!"
