Oh well, I dont know. I suppose many Danes just hate their neighbors. Germans and Swedes are definitely the top 2 hated nations. I suppose my German/Austrian ancestry is at least one reason I dont hate Germans or find them disgusting. But Danes general hatred towards Swedes and Germans is very territorially related - except for WW2 in the case of Germans, we have had many border conflicts and wars with both Swedes and Germans. Or perhaps, a more accurate term than hatred would be antipathy.

It is no secret southern Germany had a significant Celtic population and was under Roman rule for a while.

Look like geographically? Well, the specifics are open for discussion, but I was speaking in general terms, referring to what we mean when we say North Germany and South Germany. My background for saying it was simply that the way I see it, the differences in Germany are not correlated with state right now. It doesnt make sense that Austria is separated from Southern Germany, and that Southern Germany is one with Northern Germany. That is the inconsistency I was referring to. It would make more sense with Southern Germany and Austria versus Northern Germany.

I know. What I meant is just that the remains of the Prussian ethnicities must be scattered across north and north-east Germany.
