veneto

I lived in the Veneto for 4 years, and I would say the north is definitely corrupt.

Old Veneto saying Ci non fa gnente, non sbaja mai Translated Whoever does nothing never makes mistakes.

Losing the tourism industry would definitely be a blow to the economy, but Veneto would survive economically just fine.

In the Veneto they took it and improved it by adding the bitter.

I'm not sure about Liguria, but where I am from (Garda Lake on the Veneto side) they basically disappeared.

In Italy, in Veneto (the region around Venice) the local dialect tends to omit the last letter of a word if such letter is a vowel.

And not just them, the whole Veneto region in fact lives from tourism, and Venice is their main attraction, so they all heavily depend on it.

> the whole Veneto region in fact lives from tourism This has.not been true for more than 30 years.

In fact, there is a massive duality between the tourism industry in Venice and the economy of the mainland, which is markedly reflected in politics (Venice tends to elect leftist mayors, while Veneto as a whole is very rightwing).

In 2007 (15 years ago) Veneto and Lombardia italian regions elder health care ptivate facilities had to provide monthly data with a specific, mandatory excel template provided by regional health authorities.

I agree with 3/4 of this comment, but the only region run by germans is Trentino, there are a couple regions that run on their own (Lombardia, Veneto and Piemonte).

(not to mention the tap water which in the Veneto region suffer serious poisoning threats) Just examples of something you can realize only when you've lived there a bit before.

Would Catalonia, Veneto, Wallonia etc have a "right" to be separate states if their populations desire it?

Amusingly, I once met an Italian (from the Veneto area) who loved Little Ceasar's pizza and said Italian pizza was "boring".

Likewise that “Italian” is not the main language spoken by many people in Italy, which apparently has at least a few related but different languages (Neapolitan, Veneto, etc.) in use.

"E se me nona gavesse e rode sarìa na carioea", as they say here in the Veneto, which, literally translated, means "if my grandmother had wheels, she'd be be a wheelbarrow".

Try buying a house in the Veneto, you have to do it illegally.

The Veneto, where I live, was an independent republic for longer than the United States has been a going concern.

Southern, very beautiful, cheaper because it's not one of the main tourist attractions like Rome, Milan, Veneto, etc.
