Ethnocentrism, an Uncommon card
Ethnocentrism in social science and anthropology, as well as in colloquial English discourse, is the application of one's own culture or ethnicity as a frame of reference to judge other cultures, practices, behaviors, beliefs, and people, instead of using the standards of the particular culture involved.

The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Since this judgment is often negative, some people also use the term to refer to the belief that one's culture is superior to, or more correct or normal than, all others, especially regarding the distinctions that define each ethnicity's cultural identity, such as language, behavior, customs, and religion.
- In common usage, it can also simply mean any culturally biased judgment.
- For example, ethnocentrism can be seen in the common portrayals of the Global South and the Global North.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ethnocentrism article was read about 71,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 72 and blocks with 68: each hit it takes is cut by 27 %.
