    Default Is there a larger divide between Western/Eastern Europe or Northern/Southern Europe?

    Is there are greater divide between the North and the South, or the West and the East? What splits them. By this I mean in every aspect; Culture, Genetics, Physiologically, Language, etc. Also are there any exceptions between the mainland and non-mainland countries. Is there any other divisions that you would like to mention? Anything else that you think is relevant to this topic? I ask this, because I notice that many people take sides with the North vs. South, and others take sides with West vs. East. I mean when there is 'conflictions' or 'divides'. It doesn't refer to this board specifically either.

    There are literally shit loads of differences, but that's what makes Europe so great and interesting.
    There's simply too much to make any list. There are more than enough regional differences in tiny England alone to make a person go mad.

    North vs. South? Don't really know what you're on about here. Might have been a point in 100 AD during Roman expansionism but there's not really any north vs. south going on today.

    East vs. West is old too, that was communism vs liberalism.

    Different individuals have different sympathies. Simple as that!

    Europe is a geographical expression.

    Hm i dont know but some people here talk bad about Nordicists when users have a focus for Northern European countrys and Nordic traits in European people!! You know , there are more Southern Europeans than Northern European at Apricity and it is hard sometimes --- they come often as a group and attack the opinion. I dont like it but i dont retreat with my opinion, it is my right!! I am Northern European and the Northern countrys are more important to me than Southern countrys , to understand the logic behind it does not need a genius!! ^_^

    When did this happened?
    First of all i doubt that there are more southern europeans here than northern ones. And second i'm pretty sure southern european members don't care much about northern europe and focus more on their own countries. At least it's what i've observed so far.

    I can speak for myself and say that i'm not interested in northern europe.

    Tell me, when was the last time you checked the member lists? The vast majority are of northern/western european heritage You find it hard that nordicists respond to posts trying to link meds with non-europeans? Everybody doesn't reply in group as far as i have seen, but theres not really a representative for all southern Europeans on the forum, so i guess all have the right to express their views

    It would probably be a lot easier being a nordicist if you focused and was proud of your culture, people, history... instaed of trying to put down meds in order to feel better about yourself. I have yet to see any posts from you about northern european history and culture, as many as i have seen you complaining about swarthy people. If you have made any, your efforts in degrading southern europe overshadows them

    If i sad northern europeans was of mongoloid ancestry i am sure more than one would respond, won't you think?

    Some people just need to learn how to appreciate their own culture and be proud of it, instead of acting insecure and make absurd statements about others or try to steal history(like claiming southern europeans once were nordics).

    It's not obvious at all for Europeanists/Pan-Europeanists.

    I don't accept myself as Southern, non Eastern European... Everything depends on the personality. I hate stereotypes at all.
