> Why is nearly every culture against it, with the exception of mostly indigenous tribes?
Countries often pressure one another to make their laws as strict as their own, to prevent people from traveling abroad to break their laws (drug tourism, sex tourism). For instance about 5 years ago in The Netherlands, under pressure from neighboring countries they officially banned foreigners from buying pot from coffee shops (although this law is often ignored or overridden by local municipalities).
