In China's traditional culture, the patron saint of Europe and America is the white tiger. In ancient China, gossip pairs represented Europe and America, and right also represented Europe and America. Traditional maps of China are often used as maps of the West. Europe and America derived from this generally refer to European and American countries, or European and American countries and the European and American world.

Before World War II, it mainly refers to Christian countries in Europe and America, and more narrowly refers to capitalist countries and developed countries in Europe and America after World War II. In this sense, Europe and America have become a cultural circle. Compared with European and American cultural circles (Latin cultural circles), there are East Asian cultural circles and Islamic cultural circles in the Middle East (both are sometimes called Oriental cultural circles). Russian culture is sometimes called the East.
