MAPPED: Catalonia Is NOT Alone - The Regions Desperate for Independence Threatening the EU

[Peterski]

Here an ethnic map of Lithuania and Belarus from the Russian Atlas Narodov Mira (published in 1964):

You can see the so called "Pas Polski" ("Polish Strip") from the border of Poland all the way to Latvia:



And remember, that over half of Polish population from this area was deported to Poland after WW2.

Despite that huge deportation, ethnic Poles are still the majority of inhabitants in large areas there.

I do support independent Scotland, Wales and Bavaria.

Bavaria? Why?

[Peterski]

Bavaria? Why?

I don't like when Germany is too strongly united. I'd rather have something like the HRE, a loose confederation of many small states. So any separatism within Germany is welcomed. It doesn't have to be Bavaria, can be anything. But it happens to be Bavaria:

Fuck with those separatists movements. Europe should not allow its countries to be split up, ending up fragmented in a series of small insignificant micro states.

That's what the globalist elites want. They should not get what they want.

Bavaria could also unite with Austria. It is actually culturally closer to Austria than to the rest of Germany.

There are no justification for any separatist movement, Germans are all linked culturally, linguistically and, the most important, genetically, no matter where they live.

No they are not. There are large genetic differences between North and South Germans; West and East Germans.

The only thing which unites all German-speakers is nationalism which emerged in the 18th and 19th centuries.

During most of their history Germans were not politically united, and IMO it should be like that again.

The only thing that this Pan-Germanism caused in Europe, were two World Wars.

Genetic differences between regions exists in any country. In France and Italy it's much more accentuated but they are still united by a common culture, history and linguistic legacy.

[Peterski]

Various German dialects are not even mutually intelligible with each other. And by the way, Dutch language is de facto just a dialect of German. So there is no more justification for the existence of independent Netherlands, than for independent Bavaria.
