I dont understand how a society can function like Southern Italy here. Why not just do the thing when you say you will, and say you will do the thing when you intend to?
I feel like those “Alpsy” bastards would be there at 2:55.
Early is on time, and on time is late
Like Germans

Have a Sicilian family. Can confirm.
don’t ask if it’s a mafia family don’t ask if it’s a mafia family don’t ask if it’s a mafia family
Is it a mafia family?
Oooh, one might say my family is into import and one might say my family is into export
But no. We’re not family, sorry.
What’s the small region of 3:05 supposed to represent?
Hard to tell exactly but maybe Milan over to Verona and down to Bologna?
Bologna is down in Emilia Romagna, in the 3.20. I live in the region. Can confirm, it’s pretty accurate
Veneto/Lombardia: aka Verona, Milan, Padova, Venezia, Torino
Pretty accurate I must say, bravo!
lol, are they not Italian?
They’re small, oily fish.
Sicily (which would include the south end of the boot) would probably have the same label if it weren’t less funny that way. They were all distinct kingdoms and cultures for most of their history. the modern unified Italian identity is quite young by European standards, about as old as the US civil war
Isn’t that technically true about all of Italy?
I mean, it’s the same with Germany and we joke about how Bavaria isn’t really part of Germany so I don’t disagree with you
Yeah, but the northern part of the peninsula is broadly more culturally uniform than Sicily and Sardinia, and while the exact borders fluctuated a lot and was mainly made of city-states for a long time, there had been past kingdoms that unified the North peninsula much more recently than either of those two regions. “Italy” as a term really only referred to the northern peninsula, for the most part, for well over a thousand years.
Thanks for the context!
