Has any region in history been fucked over harder by its unification with a mother country?
>>18578704>unification with a mother countryBut this region remains away from its Hellenic motherland to this day.
>>18578709Sardinia is the least Hellenic part of Italy.
That's not the proper mother country.
>>18578704I was a bit skeptical about this question and the narrative that southern Italians tell about northern neglect. But the figures are staggering:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Italian_regions_by_GDPNot only are northern Italian regions substantially wealthier than the south, they're also growing faster, which is seldom ever the case. It's so easy to make a poor country grow which is why places in Africa have double-digit annual GDP growth.
>>18578704South Italy wasn't fucked over. It was a shithole before unification and remained so afterwards. East Germany and the South in the US are comparable in this regard.
"unification" always is euphemism for Colonialism.
>>18578704It was always a shithole. How can they be fucked over if they’re parasitic on the north?
>>18578755>East GermanyAlready recovering, having surpassed UK in quality of life. >The SouthSunbelt Transition has brought specialized industries with its corresponding jobsSouthern Italy has had no such significant economic uplifting.
>>18578755The white parts of the southern us are thriving right now
>>18578848You mean the Appalachian South? Lmao
>>18578854
>>18578902>hey gringo, hispanics are white!
>>18578953>moving the goalposts after you got instantly BTFO
>>18578704italia sux
>>18578902And yet still dirt poor
>>18579004Notice how I said “white” in my first post retard. Your intentional dishonesty and bad faith arguments aren’t gonna save you.
>>18579013Yes, and guess what's the whitest part of the South, retard? Appalachia, which is among the poorest regions in the entire country. It's a shithole that was only ever good for coal.
>>18578817>*Berlin recovering, having surpassed UK in quality of life.FTFY
>>18579024Refer to my original image and take your L like a man
>>18578704The continental south was always a shithole aside Naples. Unless you was from that city almost nothing changed of your way of life before and after unificationSiciliy used to be wealthy until the 14th Century, when they became a remote colony of Aragona and later Spain. Then revolted almost every decade the moment the Isle became part of Two Sicilies, and only stopped revolt after the unification as the North gave them gibs and de facto autonomy
>>18579028Appalachia, the whitest region in the South, is objectively among the poorest regions in both their respective states and in all of America. You are not going to find any statistics showing otherwise. Also, most of the states in your graph aren't even in the fucking South nor are the ones in the South especially white (no state whiter than Texas and Florida, am I right?). And Louisiana is rivaled for THE poorest state to top it off lol Dude, come the fuck on now. "Thriving" my ass.You lose, very badly at that.
>>18579025The difference between West and East Germany is trivial compared to North and South Italy. And East Germany is more developed than most of Western Europe anyway.
>>18579185Northern Italy is bordering Switzerland, France and Austria. Southern Italy is right next failed states like Greece, Turkey, Albania, Macedonia, Tunisia...Malta is somewhat rich but only because it's a taxi haven.
>>18578902Why is Washington being abbreviated as WN?
>>18579294Japan was also next to the then-failed states of Korea and China. And Southern Italy is also next to...North and Central Italy. Not only next to, but within, and they get gibs. The correct explanation is the obvious one.
>>18579402>Japan was also next to the then-failed states of Korea and China. Japan is actually poorer than Italy. >Italy's GDP per capita is $43,309, ranking 29/197, compared to $35,951 in Japan, ranking 34/197. Adjusted for purchasing power (GDP per capita PPP), Italy ranks 31st at $62,014, while Japan ranks 41st at $52,039.https://georank.org/economy/italy/japan
>>18578704Southern Italy is like the Summerset Islands, paradise on earth
>>18579568Japan is wealthier than Southern Italy. Tokyo is much wealthier than Italy. Kanto, which is more comparable in terms of population to Italy, has a comparable GDP per capita.
>>18578817>having surpassed UK in quality of lifeThat's not very hard to do after the UK decided to shoot themselves in the foot for no reason 10 years.
>>18579688Well, it's fair to point out Japan mogs Southern Italy, but by that same token North Italy mogs any region of Japan.It shows the huge divergence in Italy. Which is commensurate with the genetic difference and observed IQ differences between Northern and Southern Italians.
>>18579914Yeah maybe if you are a retarded poltard who believes ''research'' made by discredited frauds with an agenda like Lynn. That retard literally took literacy rate as proxy for IQ, my calabrian grandad was largely illiterate, he could read basic stuff (slowly) but forget about reading newspapers/books, why? because he needed to go work in the fields from an early age to help his family, he stopped going to school because he couldn't jumble both things. His sons (my uncles) became one a very successful lawyer (who became a judge after) and another a doctor. You could either believe that they magically became ''high IQ'' (but how could that be since IQ is genetically ingrained, right?) or that they had the material resources and opportunity to study unlike my grandfatherI also wonder why the millions of anglo/germanic fent cattle in the MidWest don't use their supposed ''high IQ'' to lift themselves out of poverty and addiction, maybe you should go down there and tell them that per Lynn ''studies'' they are supposed to be ''high IQ'' and rise above their material conditions all by themselves thru the sheer magical force of IQ!
>>18580092Supposedly ''Low IQ'' southern Italians out-earning supposedly ''High IQ'' Anglo/Germans in the US, oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no
>>18579004>Georgia has lower poverty then New York, MichiganThis would have been inconceivable 50 years ago. Just face it, the South has significantly improved in the post WW2 era.
>>18578709Oh fuck off.
>>18579688GoyDP doesn't matter. The swarthiest of Italians is much more valuable racially than any asiatic gook subhuman from japan.
>>18580351Germanics = North Italians >= Japanese > South Italians > Turks >= Persians > Levants > Arabs > North Africans
>>18580357>Levants > Arabs > North Africansthey are literally the same
>>18580098I mean Italians, Jews and East Asians constantly outperforming Anglos and Germans in the US is truly a punch in the face for some people.
>>18579568Japan has lower nominal GDP per capita than Lithuania this year lol, its not a wealthy nation.
Reminder that the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies had the largest merchant fleet on the Mediterranean and the third largest in the world (behind the UK and the US bit ahead of France).That all ended by their northern conquest (supported by Britain) and the UK took over trade in the Mediterranean.
>>18580403They were a crusader state that used their wealth to fund the oppression of innocent Muslims, today their irrelevance is Allah's providence
>>18580415>innocent MuslimsZutt sluts can't be innocent.
>>18580357Let me fix that for your germanix faggot.Southern Europeans = Eastern Europeans >>>>> turkroaches > all kinds of shitskins > asiatic bugmen subhuman gooks of all stripes > japs jacking off their tiny yellow clitties to children = germanix and northwestern negrophiles pimping their children to niggers and every non-white mentioned
