Actually, you know what, I'm curious. So you claim that Germany is not a nation because they have different dialects in different regions and despite their shared history together and shared customs, cultures, and heritage.

But okay, fine. Let's assume that any differences at all in a "people" actually mean that they're separate nations.

Okay then, so is France a nation? There are more regional differences within France than Germany and their shared history together is comparable to that of the Germans. Are teh French a Nation?

(Btw, I'm not counting the Basque or Bretons. Just the French)

They don't believe anything, they have no logical reason for what they say, it is just emotion-based programming. You are wasting your time trying to rationalise or reach the heart of the matter because just as in the famous quotation they will just forget what you said and pretend the conversation of the previous day never happened.

Don't bother trying to explain something that is not only common knowledge but a pure, simple fact; it is self evident to anyone who isn't mentally ill. It is like trying to explain the benefits of a balanced diet to a schizophrenic heroin addict with severe mental retardation and amnesia. Utterly futile.

Just filter and ignore, don't waste your time and energy.

Stop responding to an obvious jew, you stupid pile of shit. Learn to control your emotions. He's just trying to piss you off.

I'm genuinely curious where he draws the line between nation and region.

It's silly and esoteric and ultimately meaningless because the French People and the German People do regard themselves as nations. But meh, since we're here shitposting, might as well see if he actually believes in his own creed.

btw, here's a map I made a while back based entirely upon national identity. I tried to award each European people one nation based entirely upon the ethnic majority that lives there and which nation they most strongly identify with. Always a fun map to post as it causes kvetching.
