      abstract     = {The relation between speed and density is connected with
                      every self-organization phenomenon of pedestrian dynamics
                      and offers the opportunity to analyze them quantitatively.
                      But even for the simplest systems, like pedestrian streams
                      in corridors, this fundamental relation is not completely
                      understood. A comparison of data from literature shows that
                      specifications in text books as well as measurements under
                      various experimental conditions differ significantly. In
                      this contribution it is studied whether cultural influences
                      and length of the corridor can be the causes for these
                      deviations. To reduce as much as possible unintentional
                      effects, a system is chosen with reduced degrees of freedom
                      and thus the most simple system, namely the movement of
                      pedestrians along a line under closed boundary conditions.
                      It is found that the speed of Indian test persons is less
                      dependent on density than the speed of German test persons.
                      Surprisingly the more unordered behavior of the Indians is
                      more effective than the ordered behavior of the Germans.
                      This may be due to differences in their self-organization
                      behavior. Without any statistical measure one cannot
                      conclude about whether there are differences or not. By
                      hypothesis test it is found quantitatively that these
                      differences exist, suggesting cultural differences in the
                      fundamental diagram of pedestrians.},
