Yes some cultures do have unlucky numbers.

French is 9

America,England,Australia and some more is 13

Russia is 6

German is 4

China is 8

New Zealand is 3

I'm pretty sure theres more but i dont know them

Actually the number 8 in China is considered to be lucky, due to the sound is similar to words the stand for good fortune.

However in most East Asian countries the number 4 is considered unlucky as the way it's read "shi" is the same sound as the symbol that stands for "death".

it's pronounced "si", no "shi"

Unlucky is a very personal thing. What I would consider an unlucky colour would be lucky for someone else. Cultures and circumstances differ widely. As an example: Where I was raised both black and green are incredibly unlucky colours to wear to a wedding, and very nearly disastrous if worn by a member of the wedding party.

How are EU nations maintaining their distinct cultures?

Each has their own cultures, and nothing can really change that. The culture of each country is well embedded in it, for thousands of years in many cases. While some countries may have some similar traditions and cultures, each country is different, and some are very different. The people are all different and those many cultures cannot be moulded into one. Each country does its own things and that in itself maintains its culture. They have different organisations maintaining aspects of their culture. Many of those organisations existed long before the European Union did.
