So Zealand couldn’t give a fuck about Zealand because Denmark is basically just Zealand anyways?
Wonder how this overlaps with migration, as I guess the question was based on current residence. I feel a stronger attachment to the region I grew up in than any other region in the same country that I’ve lived in and I feel a stronger attachment to the country I grew up in than the country I now live in. Could probably explain some of the patterns.
What’s important is that they are attached to all three, not important how they rank them.
I check out my own username.
Not really correct with Twente. It’s a region in the east part of the Netherlands in Overijssel. They are very proud of their heritage. The rest of Overijssel would be more towards the country though
I’d love to see this grouped by age. My hope being that younger people are more likely to to answer Europe.
a long way ahead
Am I missing something about the UK being omitted here?
It is a little bit different Q as to what I’m trying to say, but it shows a trend, and that:
I think this shows a significant difference with US – (at least on our turf) in general we are in the first place our own proud nationalities, only after that we see/consider ourselves as Europeans/EuropeanUnionists.
Nevertheless, at least in my humble Slovak case, if I were to find myself outside of EU, I would go forward with european identity #strongertogether
Budapest: “Help! Get us the fuck outta here!”

People in Basque don’t feel attached to anyone
I don’t understand why Romania’s regions are so massive, they do not represent our counties. I’d be really curious to see if Transylvania on a whole feels more attached to the region rather than the country or if it’s only the case in the places where there’s significant Magyar populations.
It’s also important to note that regional pride in Romania is not akin to regional pride in, say, Spain. People are very attached to their Transylvanian heritage but it’s not a competing identity with the Romanian identity.
It honestly does not surprise me, as a German that the Bavarians and Franconians care more about their region than the country. Ridiculous.
I am one of the millions of British people who still think of themselves as Europeans. The vote was as close as possible, 51%-49%. Quite a lot of the idiots in the 51% are now more inclined in my direction after the post Brexit shitshow our country has become.
Hungarian government is pro-EU only when it comes to getting funds.
I would answer region first, as the most people in M-V, than the country and after that the city and at last Europe.
I doubt the whole Poland is blue, in my area there’s a strong regional pride
Then I come, feel no attachment to my region nor my country nor Europe. I’m from the South of Italy.
Brittany! A guy from there helped me a ton in Guild Wars 2 a few months back and when I asked him where he was from he said Britanny and not France, so this map checks out for that at least.
I think depending on the question is difficult too.
Like, attachment to Europe is really vague. Europe is a continent. I wonder if the results would have been different if they asked ”Attachment to the European Union” specifically
Aaaah, Bavaria. Never disappoints
As Catalan, region > Europe >>> country
Ugh, this map again.
Look, you have to understand something with places like the Basque Country or Catalonia. If they ask you ‘what are you more attached to, your country or your region’, without further EXPLICITLY saying what you mean by country and region, then you’re liable to get responses that you don’t want or are expecting.
For example, the ‘region’ that has the name ‘Basque Country’ in this map is actually the autonomous community of the Basque Country (only regrouping the three traditional Basque provinces), which is only *one part* of the larger cultural and linguistic Basque Country, which has a total of seven provinces, split between Spain (which has four provinces) and France (which has three provinces).
If you ask a Basque nationalist from the autonomous community of the Basque Country, what are you more attached to, your country or your region, it’s possible and even very likely that they’re going to say ‘country’, but not referring to Spain, but to the entire Basque Country, instead of region (the autonomous community of the Basque Country, which is only one part of the Basque Country). And if you ask a Basque nationalist from the administrative unit of Nouvelle-Aquitaine, it’s also very likely that they’ll say ‘country’, but not referring to France, and most definitely not to the ‘region’, which is Nouvelle Aquitaine legally and administratively, but which regroups a whole bunch of places and peoples to which Basque nationalists don’t have attachments to.
Basques: yea we hate spain and want independence to be basque country nation. Yea we hate basque country too.
Basque country missing ol’days without Europeans
I’m from Galicia (Spain) and I’m super attached to my region & its culture. It’s just wholesome. I’ve also lived in Barcelona, Madrid and now València and notice the difference in fact.
Sicilians feel more attachment to Italy???
Does “region” mean “administrative region” or refers loosely the area where the surveyed peope live?
In case of Italy the results would be much more different (I suspect so in most of Europe actually): in the same administrative region you can have many different identities referring to a city or an area, in some case those identities have nothing to do with said region. For example the heel of the boot, the region of Puglia, can be split in two (Puglia proper and Salento) with different regional languages as identities. Another one is Lombardy: there are historically lombard areas in the neighbouring Piedmont (Novara and VCO) and emilian areas in Lombardy, and actually the “local identities” are much much stronger than the “lombard identity”, as the region exista as a political entity since just 1970.
Warszawa nie na pomarańczowo? Dziwne.
As a Ligurian, I’m firstly a Ligurian, then I’m an European from Liguria, in Italy. I’m not so attached to Italy in general and I consider myself more European then Italian because if we speak about thoughts, habits and lifestyle I have more in common with French (French Riviera is like a French Liguria for example), Austrian, Swiss and Bavarian then with Italian from the South.
Brittany I get, but the weight of Basques in Occitania is rather unexpected…
I declare the hunt open!
1.Find the region with the least attachment to all of the 3 categories (smallest arithmetic average of the 3 values)
2.Find the country with the highest attachment to all of the 3 categories (highest arithmetic average of the 3 values)
From Rome here
I would have voted:
Region: 6
Country: 7
EU: 7
UK dose not feel attached about anything.
Er gaat niets boven Groningen.
Another inaccurately titled map.
Wonder how this would look for the states. I live in Sweden now, but as an American when people ask where I’m from my first answer is usually “New York”.
