BTW I legit have no idea what goes on in Denmark. That country is like a mystery to me. Hell for the longest time I thought they were an off brand German like the Austrians or Czechs. Only until my teens did I realise that they were actually off brand Swedes. I guess Copehaven sounds more German than Oslo or Stockholm. Did anybody have a similar reaction like this to other countries? (aka thinking that a country was one thing whilst it actually was another)?
Marche, Abruzzo and Molise are like the quiet kid who do weird shit.
Valais? Mostly drinking, skiing and maybe some interfamilial stuff.
In Värmland, Sweden, everyone either rides around in their EPA tractors (basically cars with limited speed and the backseat removed so that 15 year olds are allowed to drive it around), or raggare (basically our rednecks who glorify American rockabilly culture).
Basically nothing is going on there, this area is part of what we call « la diagonale du vide » (the empty diagonale) which is characterized by extremely low density of population and mostly farming related economy.
I’m from the french square. We grow stuff, live thanks to Michelin, get sucked dry by Volvic, got volcanoes and are forbidden to have any decent transportation modes (except the highway from Paris to the sea that every dutch caravan know very well). We also provide some of the worst politicians possible.
Fuck you
Accurate regarding my country
I lived in that region in norway and I can tell you: alcoholism, bizarre otherworldly sceneries and towns, and cabin fever
What happens in Mayo? Turf, Sheep and losing all Ireland finals, that’s about it
Wondering about Hainaut? Maybe I can explain. Maybe not. What are you wondering?
In Finland we have a lot of swedish speaking people in that region.
A german guy once told us to stop paying the church to get rid of our sins and that sounded pretty sweet.
Long before that we did some pretty some cool pagan shit.
Hainaut is known for two things:
Charleroi and dinosaurs. And both can be linked to the coal industry.
Salamanca and Extremadura, prime ham and chorizo producing region. Also, some of the best paprika in all of Spain and therefore the World.
In Pohjanmaa? Weddings with high murder rates.
I grew up in England’s red square. Not much going on there really, just a shit ton of farming. They make IMO the best sausages in the UK, and there’s a nice cathedral (which apparently was once the world’s tallest building). But in the modern era, not much is happening.
Speaking for the Austrian part: people there are a weird blend of Austrians, Slovenians and Italians. And just like that you can imagine that their dialect is pretty funny.
What they do? I don’t know, mostly racism. But besides that? Who the hell knows
Ostrobothnia would be religious nuts or people who want to stab you, samma på svenska, flooding and the only allowed geographical features are flat or river. It’s a delightful area, my dad was from there.
Mostly right wing racism and homophobia. Source: I live there
Yes, all of Denmark, what’s going on over there?
In that English square you’ve got the two time champions of Europe tearing up the premier league
Oh, I can answer this one.
You ever seen the movie Midsummer? Yeah, it’s kinda like that over there.
The 3.5 people who live in Connaught would be very mad at this post if they had internet access
Agriculture, mostly pig and poultry farming.
The people of the Southern half of your tagged region which is around Hannover speak accent and dialect free, standard German. Which is special since it’s not the case in all other regions.
The Italian rectangle is full of people coming from the German rectangle
Speaking for the German area: it’s fields. Nothing but agriculture. And Hannover, but Mordor would be less shitty than that.

I live there.
Hope that cleared up your confusion.
Farming probably, considering the one in the Netherlands covers Salland, Twente, and the Achterhoek
Not much happens in Cambridgeshire or Lincolnshire. Mostly just farming. It used to be underwater until the Dutch drained it. Also Brexit central.
Exactly in the middle of that square over The Netherlands some guy is typing this comment on Reddit.
Ours is a pile of potatoes and a pond – https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fens
The region in Sweden anyway.

This is key to understand this culture, and why 15 year olds seem to drive “cars” all over rural Sweden.

In Ribatejo ? Mostly this kind of stuff

For French area :

The area of Greece you pointed out it’s Etolia, is mostly swamps and lagoons
