  1. I always especially liked the light blue regions, since that’s usually where the most interesting cultures are found.

  2. Budapest loving Europe more than Hungary

    Viktor loving EU money but not Europe

  3. What’s up with the ugly Transavia app colors

  4. Also, if you want to understand Spain, this map is all you need.

  5. If the UK was included and “The country” referred to the UK and not England, Wales etc. Then the SE of England would be dark blue, and the rest would be light blue

  6. I’m all three, personally.

    Hella proud of being catalan

    Hella proud of being spanish

    Hella proud of being european

  7. Switzerland would probably be entirely “region” or at least swiss-romandy and ticino for sure

  8. Tuscany be like: where it the option for city?

    Siena people be like : that is still too big 

  9. Region of course… at least if I’m not on r/2westerneurope4u

  10. “Funny” how this map excludes Europe’s outermost regions…

  11. Haha, there’s so many fun interpretations to do on this.

    Like Belgians systematically hating their country and being united in their disunion.

    Or Northern Italians being like “Italy? Nah, we don’t know these other guys, we’re from *Northern* Italy”.

    Or the Irish going all “TIOCFAIDH ÀR LÀ MOTHERFUCKERS”.

  12. Accurate. Everything East of West-Flanders is barbaric.

  13. People from Saarland having most attachment to the region is actually kindof hilarious. There isn’t really a common history that encompasses all of Saarland. Each instance throughout history from dutchy over province and department de sarre all the way to the Saargebiet and now Saarland had completely different borders. Even the northern parts that gave us the incest reputation used to belong to Trier up until WW2.

  14. This map needs a VERY slight pink hue to represent the people in this sub.

  15. We generally just don‘t have emotions, that‘s why there‘s no data. Our loyalty is to gold and money only.

  16. EW EW EW EW, how do you misunderstand Europe so badly you identify as European? A CORE value of European culture is HATING EVERYONE ELSE

  17. Das schönste Land in Deutschlands Gau’n,
    das ist mein Badnerland.
    Es ist so herrlich anzuschau’n
    und ruht in Gottes Hand.

    D’rum grüß ich dich mein Badnerland,
    du edle Perl’ im deutschen Land.
    frisch auf, frisch auf; frisch auf, frisch auf;
    frisch auf, frisch auf mein Badnerland.

    In Karlsruh’ ist die Residenz,
    in Mannheim die Fabrik.
    In Rastatt ist die Festung
    und das ist Badens Glück.

    D’rum grüß ich dich mein Badnerland,
    du edle Perl’ im deutschen Land.
    frisch auf, frisch auf; frisch auf, frisch auf;
    frisch auf, frisch auf mein Badnerland.

    Alt-Heidelberg, du feine,
    du Stadt an Ehren reich,
    am Neckar und am Rheine,
    kein’ and’re kommt dir gleich.

    D’rum grüß ich dich mein Badnerland,
    du edle Perl’ im deutschen Land.
    frisch auf, frisch auf; frisch auf, frisch auf;
    frisch auf, frisch auf mein Badnerland.

  18. I’d like to see a side-by-side of this map and a map showing the prevalence of regional languages. I suspect the regions which identify more with their region than their country probably align pretty well with regions that speak a separate language than whatever the standard language in the country is.

  19. You know this map is fake because there are parts of Italy that are more attached to the country than their region.

  20. Works for me! I feel equally attached to my region as I do to Europe / the EU.

  21. UK would be hard with this one, no?

    The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is a country.

    England is a country.

    Scotland is a country.

    Wales is a country.

    Northern Ireland is a country.

    They have regions in them.

    Does a Scottish vote for “country” represent Scotland or the UK?

  22. Why is Skåne and Blekinge counted as one!? I’m so offended!
