....a european sub group, like the Nordics.

Even as I would put the Bavarians more into the alpine sub group!

Depends where you ask....the Bavarians see themselves surely not as "northern aka prussian", and the Ossis see themselves as "mittel" as possible....and the Wessis would wonder why you don't call them western Europeans like the Frenchies...

And if you mean "northern" as in scandinavian then that is an error generally I fear....the Scandinavians are their totally own category, no German would put himself into it.

Central Europe according to The World Factbook (2009)[1] Encyclopedia Britannica and Brockhaus Enzyklopädie (1998):



familypedia.wikia.org/wiki/Central_Europe

Central Europe according to P. Jones (Leibniz Institute for Regional Geography). Many Central European countries and regions were parts of the German and the Austro-Hungarian empires; thus they also have historical and cultural connections.

.....well...Merkel grew up behind the Iron Curtain too....do you think of her as an eastern European?

Who is "the rest of the world"?

Most don't care anyhow, they accept what they are being told....

History / Is Poland a Slavic country?! (politics included) [90]


....that is hardly a criterium and why should it be?

People here in central Europe feel strongly about it, that should be enough....

And where do you start? East Germany had been put behind the Iron Curtain too, but would you put it into eastern Europe because of that?

News / Germany eyes Poland's economic miracle [44]

A nice and interesting read! :)

...Germany and Poland, Wasinski believes are becoming the industrial center of Eastern Europe, capable of developing value chains that are "beneficial for both partners."

I really hope that includes East Germany!

*fist bump* :)

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


Well...not only mine! Yours too... But neither I nor you would call themselves Africans. So why should the Jews who live here since 1000 years?

There are not many Jews left who would identify as Germans today btw...but if they do I welcome them. And I would never dare to tell them what they should or have to be!

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]

"You lot" ? :)

As far as I know the jewish people group themselves as sephardic and ashkenazim....maybe you confuse these things?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sephardi_Jews

...Largely expelled from the Iberian Peninsula in the late 15th century, they carried a distinctive Jewish diasporic identity with them to North Africa, including modern day Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt; South-Eastern and Southern Europe, including France, Italy, Greece, Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Turkey; the Middle East, including Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Iran; as well as the Americas...

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashkenazi_Jews

Whereas the sephardic Jews have a widespread diaspora in North Africa the ashkenazim are as european/german as they come...

...Ashkenazic Jews or, by using the Hebrew plural suffix -im, Ashkenazim[a] are a Jewish diaspora population who coalesced in the Holy Roman Empire around the end of the first millennium.[20]...

They have been living here for over a Millennia...about 1000 years...and you call them Africans???

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]

What exactly has been anti-Polish? That german Jews don't saw themselves as Africans?

...I just think you should let the Jews themselves identify as what they want, not deciding for them...that goes for everybody actually!

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]


Maybe you reword your question again for me? I have no idea what you are going for....

That a german jewish doctor by the name of Heinz König who earned an Iron Cross in WWI should identify as African? Seriously???

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]

So how does this work if according to you Jews are Germans and German DNA is African in origin but at the same time you and Jews don't call yourselves African?

What?


Erm....

I don't know where you learned your history....

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuremberg_Laws

Nazis denied Jews their Germanness (kind of what you are trying to do), so they weren't even allowed to join the forces after 1933.

History / Malinowo: Polish-Nazi Supression? [447]

I don't hear any native European call themselves African, and still that's where our ancestor DNA came from...partly that is....

The Jews in Germany identified as Germans, they fought in Germany's wars for Germany, they died for it...you can't get any more German than that.

I would like to know why that is.

It definitely could if wanted but the political will is just not there...we rather sell the needed parts to others to destroy themselves with them.

I'm still burned from the last ones, even as I personally haven't suffered. I think millions of European feel that way too...you too, I guess or you wouldn't continuously write such hateful posts about what you would do if you could.

That's why Yalta isn't seen as a highlight...neither was Versailles...

But that is all history now...there won't be any wars in EU-Europe anymore!

News / New "Polish memorial" in Berlin [316]


Yeah...but the reason for the separation stems back from the founding wars under Bismarck, he purposefully drove the Austrians out...it was kinda a civil war between the Prussian Kingdom and the Austrian Empire...for the soul of the new-to-be-build German Nation (non-catholic).

I told you...its complicated....


The French are not the Franks, Crowie!

The Franks who founded Frankia with one of the greatest kings in european history, Karl der Große aka Charlemagne, where a federation of germanic tribes.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franks

The French are mainly descendants of the Gauls (and later Romans)...two different people, separated by the Rhine...
