[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 476159, member: 2020"] I appreciate and respect that there are many cultures and languages in Europe not shown on politcal maps read by Yours Truly. That does not lessen their importance in any way, and this poll is not trying to lessen their importance either. Anyone who thinks Normandy is merely another province of France, for example, needs to study their history! The problem is that Yours Truly simply does not know his geography well enough to be able to point to and identify all of Europe's unique culture and languages (and this is unfortunate, and the result of ignorance on the part of Yours Truly.) I know that in Spain, the Basque have their own culture and language. I know that Normandy, in France, has it's own culture and language. I know that in Germany, German is spoken differently from Lander to Lander (province to province.) I doubt Bavaria considers itself like unto Essen in the north. I know that Russia is divided into a plethora of provinces, each with their own ethnic group and language, culture and history (anyone who does not distinguish Novgorod from Moscow ought to read their history.) However, I do not know enough to be able to place everyone in the poll. For this, you have my apologies. If one part of Belgium speaks one language, and another part of Belgium speaks another language, I appreciate that this is a serious business. In Europe, major wars have been fought over a few provinces speaking different languages (the Franco-Prussian War, for instance, gave Germany the French provinces of Lorraine and Alsaac (sorry if that's the wrong spelling.) which speak German and not French.)) All I can say is: your culture and language is worth being in any poll, and if this poll neglected it, it is the fault of Yours Truly who does not know his European Political Geography sufficiently.
