Etiquette: n. rules for socially acceptable normative behavior
Etiquette rarely varies widely from one area of the country to the next but different cultures definitely have noticeable changes in etiquette which are unique to that culture.
Giving of flowers, cleaning your plate, tipping, and eating with your hands have different meanings in some countries and you can confuse the guest by doing those things which are accepted customs in the United States. Slurping and sticking out your tongue which are frowned on in the United States have positive meanings in some countries and are perfectly acceptable.
Being rude is frequently the result of not following the accepted etiquette of your culture.
