Mergers refer to as combination of 2 similar type of company into one big company. This type of market expansion generally takes place when company wants to eliminate competition in the industry. In this expansion method it reduces the cost of marketing for the company as firm need not to invest high amount on the advertisement because of reduction in competitors.

Power distance index, Uncertainty avoidance index, Masculinity vs. femininity, Long term and short term orientation, individualism and collectivism are the factors on which country are evaluated to identify their culture.
