@Asega, how you mean this last one...it is about your ancestry lineage not about your personal feelings...

I don't think you understand the purpose of this thread. There was nothing wrong with Asega's post. And "relate with" has a lot to do with personal feelings.

1. Galicians are not Spaniards. (Falkata will love it. )

He will love this even more

2. You only feel very related to Catalans and Basques in Spain, but not to those in France and Andorra.

I haven't interacted with Gascons or Northern Catalans recently so i don't know.

[Liffrea]

English.

I have Scottish relations (never met them) and some Irish blood, I relate to that to the extent that we are all “British” geographically but I don’t feel any ancestral pull to either country, I’m an East Mercian Englishman through and through as far as I am concerned.

I hold Anglo/British-Americans, Anglo-Canadians, Anglo-South Africans, Australians and New Zealanders as part of the “Anglosphere”, I generally have little difficulty relating to any of the people I have met of those nations.

That’s it.

LOL. What I don't get completely is that flag, though.

I see, but haven't you interacted with Andorran smurfs?

LOL. What I don't get completely is that flag, though.

It is a constructed anachronic flag. It's mainly used by a small bunch which wants to reconstruct a mythical Greater Galicia, based on what was a brief foreign Suebi dominion in the Peninsula.

For that constructed flag, they used some "apocryphal" vague elements they found out in the 20's about a legend written in a document from 1669. Go figure.

In Galicia they find support in a pseudo-intelectual elite. In Portugal they find support in some riff-raff who was flamed in the Football Wars during the 80's and 90's and in some mercantilist elite from the city of Porto who wants more financial power, like the entrepeneurs from CIP among other capitalist savages who see nations and states as enterprises.

The way they dispose the elements of the flag was constructed based on some fairytale legend of a Suebi battle as south as Coimbra. It involves a magic princess of course.

Funny is that to give more credibility to their flag, they usurped the disposition of Coimbra's coat-of-arms,

which is a Portuguese property, and they even claim the city into their idiot expansionist map in a region with the name of "Mondego", a river which is supposedly the border who separates them from the darkside.

They are retarded to the point of not knowing that the region they call "Mondego" is called Beira from timeless ages, and to the point of not knowing how Coimbra is a bastion of Portuguese culture, far before it's independence in 1139, back to times of Conii (the founders of Conimbriga, today's Coimbra).



^ They can claim even England, they are seen as retards from Left to Right, from top to bottom. Like many loonies they live in a world of their own, dettached from reality, spreading their "message" throughout a website which is a hall of misfits and rejects (some I've personally known), the Forum Gallaecia.

They claim themselves of being of pure Celtic extraction while those southwards are called "moors", which is as real as a Pan-Aryan alliance from Lisbon to Delhi, from the Scandinavia to the Aryans of Sahara (LMAO, you must see the Berber Aryan site). You may visit their equivalent "pure Lusitanian" counterparts south here: http://ptl.home.sapo.pt/history.html

They even invented a new lexicon for a new Galician language which will be taught to people who have "Nortenho" accent. Yes, it's that ridiculous, something like reinventing a new Proto-English language based in the accent from Newcastle or Portsmouth, stressing the idiolects from the locals and making it a language. Yes, it's even more ridiculous than squeezing the Cockney accent and make it a language.

Their future? wasting internet bandwidth and being mocked. Even in what they call "Gallaecia Sul" or "Gallaecia Bracarense" (where the Cultura Castreja was predominant thousands of years ago, due to geographical determinism) they are mocked. Albeit detesting this bunch even more than we do, some people in Spain interested in the end of Portugal, give them tacit support, wet-dreaming that in this way, Portugal can be fractured and absorbed in a federal Greater Spain. It's internet wanking, but what can we do? Sure. If even Tsim Fuckus can youtube his own Eminem cover, why can't this people have their own RPG?

The outcome? Sabotaging sane approaches to Nationalism here and there. Very very rarely, fortunately. They are in the same bag as the Indian nazis. The sad fortune is that you can only really laugh to tears at them if you understand Portuguese or Galician. Like I have done with people from the regions they claim here. One of these days I'll go to their claimed cities and make a vast public poll for the sake of jesting.

Biba! O Puorto é uma naçoum, carago!
