What SOUTHERN EUROPEANS Really Think About Each Other? 

Ikr, I'm spanish and everytime I go to Italy it feels like I didn't move from Spain

That's so nice to hear, I'm really glad you had a good experience in Spain.

@@monicarm524 Claro que si hermana la España y Italia son las mejores después de todo stay safe and have a good new year

Spain and Italy are like twins 😂💗

I'm Portuguese and I feel the same! Being in Italy or Spain is like being home, specially because of the language, both are very easy to understand for us. Wish I could say the same for France though, but they think they're better than everyone (there must be exceptions ofc)

German and Dutch tourists too😂👍

hahahahhah TRUE

South Europeans have chunk of African/Moorish blood.

@@Omerath9 I wouldn’t doubt they’re more mixed than Northern Europeans, Southern Europe has been a melting pot of so many different cultures and invasions throughout history.

Not all. I was in Southern Italy and Milan once. They can also be arrogant and cold. There are nice and bad people in every country. Just the negative aspects of alcohol are not as visible, because they tend to drink at home (but that does not count for Italian hooligans from the north). In contrary, Northern Europeans drink where ever they want and thus can act more aggressively (in the night).

Same in Greece. I guess British tourists love to party in Southern Europe. I wish they were drinking and puking less in our streets though!

@awfulguitarplucker fair enough, but for some reason they think that in our countries there are no rieles and they can do whatever they want

@awfulguitarplucker I've lived in the UK for five years and it is as you describe plus the fact that people are really "closed" they won't open up to you and will keep to themselves.. until they start drinking. Also, in my experience British consider being drunk a fun, cool situation, while in my country it is considered pathetic and humiliating.

Very true - - Italy overrated all idiots there

I agree in everything you said.

Only Italy and France get enough spotlight imo, Spain is underrated as well and the little the world knows about it is basically just Andalusia

@@lordpickle65 spain is not as underrated as Portugal... Sure, there's not enough exposure of the country in movies so people tend to think only about beaches and dancing, however due to the fact that Spanish is being learnt in a lot of germanic speaking countries, I think that Spain has a much bigger spotlight than Portugal.

@Jose Moran Italy barely surpasses Spain in economical level it has 15m more of population, so that might be a factor. Italy and France were important powers during ww2, while Spain and Portugal remained neutral there's probably a relation too

João Português Lisbon is the most beautiful city in the world, and Portugal is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. ❤️ The city of Porto is very old and romantic city. The Portuguese should be proud of the beauty of their country. They have a beautiful nature, climate, architecture, cuisine, music (fado) ... Only people without souls don't like fado. Lisbon has a soul, and its name is ‘fado’. Fado was recognised by UNESCO in 2011 as an ‘intangible cultural heritage’. Lisbon, Portugal’s capital city, is the heartbeat of the country. It’s also one of the oldest cities in the world, predating even Rome. Lisbon is a city of old souls who value tradition, art, and creativity and are putting those facets of life to use in modern ways. The Portuguese people are some of the kindest I’ve come across in my travels. They are one of the best nations in the world, they are very polite and friendly open to foreigners. People with the beautiful hearts and souls. For me, the Portuguese language is the most beautiful language. I speak several languages including Portuguese, Spanish, French, English, German, and Croatian, my native language. Languages are my passion. European Portuguese and Slavic languages have the same phonetics. In Portugal, Russian speaking people learn the language quite easily. English speaking people don't use many of the sounds used in Portuguese, so they have a bit more difficulty. European Portuguese is sexy as fuck, it's a perversion for my ears. 😊 Spanish author Miguel de Cervantes once called Portuguese "the sweet and gracious language" and Spanish playwright Lope de Vega referred to it as "sweet", while the Brazilian writer Olavo Bilac poetically described it as "a última flor do Lácio, inculta e bela" (the last flower of Latium, rustic and beautiful). Portuguese is also termed "the language of Camões", after one of the greatest literary figures in the Portuguese language, Luís Vaz de Camões. Olavo Bilac once said "a Pátria não é a raça, o meio, o conjunto dos aparelhos económicos e políticos, é o idioma herdado ou criado por um povo". Fernando Pessoa wrote in Lisbon "a minha Pátria é a Língua Portuguesa". Saudações da Croácia. 😘

Well, the average Portuguese have a certain tendency towards Hispanophobia. The black legend has taken deep roots there...

@@manuelmanzanero5057 Not really, we just don't like how some Spaniards feel 'superior' to us, and how they behave when on vacation (refusing to make an effort to understand the language and being very loud.)

@@nezahuall To say that Spaniards, or some Spaniards, feel superior to you (I assume that you mean the Portuguese), is a purely psychological and subjective assessment. It is as arbitrary as inverting the terms and saying that it is the Portuguese or some Portuguese who feel inferior to the Spaniards and who project on them the arrogance or security that they lack. But superiority or inferiority are complexes of individuals, not of human groups or countries. When you say that some Spaniards feel superior, in what sense do you mean it? They think they are taller, smarter, more handsome, more successful? Or is it simply an assumption that you abstract from the fact that you consider them "loud" or unwilling to learn the language? But no: the reality is that beautiful and ugly people, tall and short, successful and unsuccessful, there are in all countries, cities and streets. Success, height, intelligence, do not define some countries against others. The issue of the bad behavior of the Spanish tourists continues to cause me some amazement. Portugal is visited every year by thousands of Spaniards: it is not uncommon to find them in all cities, and it is easy to hear them (because of their high number, not because they make a particular noise). I myself have a part of my family living near Lisbon (Cascais). My impression is not of bad behavior, but my impression is subjective and I do not deny that there might be some cases. However, according to statistics, the British appear year after year at the top of the countries with the worst performing tourists. This is evident in Spain: but it is also evident in the rest of the countries of the Mediterranean basin, especially those most focused on beach tourism. In Portugal, is the behavior of the British used to construct a general judgment about the United Kingdom and its inhabitants? Of course not, and it would be unfair and arbitrary to do so. But nevertheless, it is used to reach general conclusions about the Spanish. And what about the effort for the language? Do you ask the Britons to make the effort to learn your language? Of course not: we speak English to them, and we consider ourselves modern and cosmopolitan countries for doing so (and it's difficult not to remember here the issue of the inferiority complex). So I am afraid that the history behind some Portuguese with Spain has little to do with noise, superiority and bad behavior of tourists: in the same way, if all those things are not reproached to the Brits it also has little to do with their objective behavior, but with a series of prejudices and sympathies / antipathies related to the history of the last centuries and the way in which it has been institutionalized in schools and in the environmental ideology of our different countries. The UK (I mean its monarchy and its academic elites) has always been a first class country at justifying its actions in front of the world and demonizing the actions of others. But that's another matter. Greetings.

The type of statements you are making are completely unjustified, your experience is not statistically relevant to speak in the name of England.

@@IdaNebuloni hahahahha so nice. In my opinion italians and Spaniards are like brothers. We're so similar it's incredible. I love Italy and it's people! Saludos desde España🇪🇦❤️🇮🇹

JAJAJAJAJAJAJ

Meanwhile in Greece: MANAAAAAA TI ΕΧΕΙ ΝΑ ΦΑΜΕ; *screaming as you literally enter the house*

The Portuguese (and Greeks) always use subtitles on TV (unlike Spain, Italy and France who dub everything) - and that is one of the main reasons why their English is way better.

@@Sergiovision I always thought that former colonial powers like Spain, France and England were pretty monolingual because their international relationship used to be more with their former colonies that speak the same language, but I guess Portugal debunks this myth. Maybe Portuguese are less egocentric and more open to learn other languages I guess.

@@Sergiovision Well that is great!!! I am visiting Portugal in April if God is willing so I’m pretty sure I’m not gonna have a hard time.. I also speak Spanish so it should be ok for me

@@lissandrafreljord7913 I agree!! I speak Spanish.. I visited Spain in 2019 and thank God I speak Spanish because they hardly speak any other language. I am Mexican-American by the way

@@mexicanbeautyqueen7988 for sure, we're always willing to help and talking in English is not a problem, you're always welcome here 😊 hope you have a wonderful time!!

where did you live? :P

@@TheGabrielPTI lived in Lisboa (8 months), the Azores (Terceira) for 6 months, the Algarve for 6 months, Beja for 6 months, and Santarém for a month. It's been almost 10 years but I still speak Portuguese well.

@@ScottJB thats so cool, glad you loved it. How hard was the Azorian accent? Hahaha

@@TheGabrielPT Hahah they always told me I talked com sotaque continental but I feel like for a while afterwards I started to stay stuff like "tive a dormuir" instead of "dormir" or "fiqyar" instead of "ficar" haha. I think people on the continent usually associate the Azores with the accent of São Miguel but Terceira is very different from S.M.

@@ScottJB ahh yes, yes, that was my mistake. São Miguel is the known island for that accent haha

When she did the 3 spits and evil eye, she was very cute.

Cyprus is greek. The people Who live there are greek

@@istinpolin4508 Yes I know :) But Cyprus is a different country thats why i say Cyprus too :)

You"re right!

and Andorra

San Marino and the Vatican too

@J. Smith indeed! We share all common history and the Southern European culture! Both are beautiful countries with wonderful people! I feel like home when I visit Portugal and Spain!

I love all Southern Europeans from Slovakia ❤️ I’ve been to Italy, Spain and Greece multiple times, the food, the culture and the people are the best. I had to go to Portugal with my family this year, but it was cancelled because of Covid. I hope I would be able to visit Portugal and France soon!

Once I went to Greece.... what I liked the most was.... Greeks :) I have no idea why, can't explain very well

@J. Smith Very informative and interesting comment, thank you. A few years ago, for some reason, I developed an interest in the Celtic history of Portugal to the point of actually visiting Galiza/Galicia and seeing some of their historic Celtic sites. I also learnt an Irish legend of a “Míl Espáine”, son of a Galician Celtic chieftain called “Breogan”, who left Galicia and landed in the shores of Ireland, establishing Ireland’s last peoples, the Milesians. Would be fascinating if there was actually some truth to the legend!

Interesting (or even odd) to me, that a girl from Paris appears in a video about Southern European / Mediterranean people.

Thank you Love 💙

@@SpartanLeonidas1821 Welcome..... 😊 You're most welcome! 🤗 💙

France Spain and Italy translate everything, be it movies, shows and even their national music is more often than not on their respective languages. Not here in Portugal. Many of US even keep Windows/ games and menu settings in English :) besides the way portuguese is Spoken kinda makes English easy.

We don’t translate anything in movies and commercials and etc since the dictatorship started. It was a way of controlling our population from what was happening outside of our country (evolution, free speech) since none of us could speak English back then 😂

Hey, don't be so hard on your country! We all have ups and downs. Love from Portugal.

@@chupameusculh0es493 except shrek, watching shrek without dub is a federal crime

@Biel 2001 No! Russian sounds Portuguese

Muito obrigada pelas suas lindas palavras. Será sempre benvinda no meu país. Beijinhos de Portugal😘

@@MariaMartins-jq2ep De nada. 😉 🇭🇷❤️🇵🇹

Jesus, you almost made me cry, thank you so much!!!!!!!! Love to croatia (this is real, i frequently talk with croatians, great people) from Portugal! 🇵🇹❤️🇭🇷

@@luismendes3307 You're welcome. 😉 And thank you for your kind words. 🥰💋 God bless you!

I'm on all fours with such highly praise and distinction - my heart was enchanted by such a sensitive Croatian soul. I'm speechless and false modesty it is not... THANK YOU ! 💚💗

Plus she looks like a true portuguese lady like highschool friend i had

🇫🇷😭

@@PawPatrolTheLionGuardFan France is not a Southern European country

@@lezeal601 It is Central, South and Western European.

@@lezeal601 the south of France is part of southern europe

@@PawPatrolTheLionGuardFan I also love France and Southern France ofc ❤️🇫🇷❤️

Greeks have (an understanding of) pathos like us portuguese. I think that's something that we have in common :)

And malaka is my spanish city

@@EnzoCaballero1 Ohh really?? That's nicee. :)

​@@EnzoCaballero1 LOL !! I hope you don't call the citizens of Malaka City , "Malakes" :)

I’m Spaniard and we love Greeks! 💙🤍💙🇬🇷 💛❤️💛🇪🇸

Dont forget the portuguese 🇵🇹🇬🇷

@@polish-lithuaniancommonwea5347 We also love the portuguese....distant cousins!!!!!

Same here. As italians, Spaniards = our best friends, Greeks = our brothers.

No, as a Greek I feel nothing for the Mediterranean countries, only Italy I like. Greece we love Georgia Armenia Russia not the Mediterranean countries

even my great-grandpa who was in prison during ww2 didn't have to say anything against the Italians... and my grandma has at least 3 stories involving Italian soldiers who gave her food without expecting anything in return during the occupation even though they were "the enemy". we're too close as nations to be actual enemies

thank sarah for your kind words! Italians are my favorite people, I can't pinpoint exactly what it is (probably a mix of language, culture, lifestyle and similarity to greece). I like Italian culture so much che da un mese ho cominciato ad apprendere l' Italiano ! baci ai mei fratelli e sorelle italiani ♥♥

@@vasilikikakara3092 my granpa fought in Yugoslavia and Greece. He likes Mussolini before ww2: a war that nobody wants expect Mussolini itself, in particular the infamous invasion of Greece. No more brother wars.

Love for you too from Spain!

Man I love Marocco!

@@bliblih Spain and Morocco a Love story 💐💐

@@ZeePintor Thank u dude ! where are you From ?

Not to mention delicious!

not to mention that last for hourS...

@awfulguitarplucker never be sorry for being who you are. we are not inferior or superior for being culturally different

@awfulguitarplucker I recommend you to see the documentary "The Swedish theory of love", it talks about the lonely lives they have in Sweden (but applies to the other Nordic countries as well). There is nothing to be ashamed of talking loud during dinner, it is part of being a human. Greetings from Mexico

@awfulguitarplucker What's the alternative? Gobbling your food from your lap as we do in the UK? Often while watching tv. Dinner from a table is a luxury at Christmas or seen in more discerning households that have the occasional dinner party. Please never change.

I agree, I'm from Morocco and can't live without French fries lol I don't know if it's French or Belgian but I just lOVE it, I also like pizza, panini, Spanish omelette, (tortilla), bravas, etc. I love les les escargots too even it's disgusting for some people but for me it's really nice I don't know about Portuguese or Greek food But Italian and French food are everywhere, and because I live in the north Spanish food is very common in here.

Verdade👌

@@Venus-xj8bd In Portugal popular dishes are cod (bacalhau), custard tarts (pastéis de nata), octopus (polvo), grilled sardines (sardinhas assadas), shellfish, bread ans pastry in general. You should try them!

I'm from The Netherlands and totally agree!

I love Italian food but food in the levant (Syrian/Lebanese) is also one of the best. so you probably should’ve said Mediterranean food is the best lol

Burnt Pink leather skin and fainting after 5 minutes due to heat exhaustion

FMORAIS so funny! I am Spanish from across the border and my great grandfather, Antonio Silva, was Portuguese ❤️

@@Victoria-rl4cu what a coincidence haha my great-grandmother was called Melania, from Vigo (Galicia) :)

I have both Spanish and Portuguese ancestry

12 points gooo to ...Portugal..

Very true. The greeks girls were sweet as well

@@MLSoll I totally agree with u

@@joaoteixeira7410 :)

Thanks, we appreciate it!

It's true. Spanish people living in Gr have an accent almost as locals. We have the same sound and rythm when speaking

But in Portugal we are super loud..

@@joaoteixeira7410 El portugués es un pueblo más cordial y tranquilo que el español. Y lo digo como español.

I would lovee too meet a croatian babee ;*...normally yours are very beutifull and you too, do you want a portuguese man? So...

@@bernardopratta3076 o verdadeiro 😂

Yay Nour! Well said 🙌

@J. Smith Not Mediterranean but still Southern European. Portugal technically is in South Western Europe bordering the Atlantic.

@J. Smith Southern European is a general term. Yes Portugal is in South Western Europe. South Europe is divided between South Eastern and South Western Europe. Italy is South Central Europe. Yes there are differences for sure between these countries. Southern European is just a generic general term. The Portuguese are a South South Western non Mediteranean Atlantid peoples.

@J. Smithsorry I don't quite understand what you're saying, what do you mean exactly?

@J. Smith What??? Are u compering the weather of Portugal with England?? Lol 😂 I live in London almost a year love it but the weather after 8 months start to affect me, turn me blue or grey !!! We don’t reach the Mediterranean, but we have Mediterranean culture also! I know... Portugal is little but u can split it in 3 areas, north, center and south ... U will see the different influences of cultures.... Cheers from Portugal ✌🏼🙂

and levant

North africans

not. spieces are from mediterranean and asia not from america. and theres nothing american in mediterranean diet just tomatos and just some potatoes but no more than that

we mediterraneans (not all spain is in mediterranean just a part) eat spieces from mediterrean and north africa/eastern asia, not america. just tomatos

@@thesapphirem5469 I don't know what country you're from but we eat a lot of things that came from America lmfao Mediterranean diet is amazing but it's not made exclusively of food only found in the Mediterranean coast since the dawn of civilization. Tomatoes are just ONE of the many things America had and we didn't before the Renaissance.
