Human: I've heard that the United States is a 'classic' country. What does that mean? Assistant: 
A classic country is one where there is an emphasis on individualism and competition, rather than collectivism. The US is often described as a "melting pot" of different cultures and ethnicities, which can make it seem like a more traditional society. However, in reality, the US has always been a place where people from all over the world have come to pursue their own dreams, and this is still very much the case today.
