Because they were different. The dominant powers in northern Italy were Sardinia-Piedmont and the Papacy, while the Two Sicilies ruled in the south.

Northern Italy was primarily industrial, whereas Southern Italy was primarily agricultural. This led to a cultural division between Italians from these regions over the course of many generations.

The south Italians just age spaniards in denial.

My grandmother used to say northern Italy was wealthier and southern was more average financially

Southerners are lazy

Central Italy doesn't exist. It's funny how tuscanians were more deeply brainwashed by leghisti and their padania bullshit than people actually living in the Po plain.

Northern Italy: influenced by Celts, Franks, Lombards, Goths, the HRE, Protestantism, France and Austria.

Southern Italy: influenced by Greeks, Carthaginians, Arabs, Byzantium, Normans and Spaniards.

because north italians wants to be germanic so they all are cucks and homossexuals

So north is uncultured swine and south is cultured but shit.

Southern and central Italians are Italian, northern Italians are Italian-speaking Swiss.

Because they've had wildly different interactions with the world pretty much from the start of their history. The North, being less geographically isolated from the rest of Western Europe, fell under the influence of the various peoples that fought over it - the Germanic peoples that came during the fall of rome, then the Franks and Germans, and then finally Austrians and French.

The South, meanwhile, was spared these influences, but instead had connections with groups like the Greeks (dating back to even pre-roman times), Muslims, Normans, and Spanish. Thanks to the political barrier offered by the Papal states, it was easier for them to remain relatively isolated from the northern Italian regions, and with different climate and geography, they developed their own separate culture.

Learn your stuff:

- Center is Italic + Etruscan
- South and Sicily is Greek + Italic + Albanian
- Sardinia is completely unrelated to the people of the peninsula

The Piedmontians treated southern Italy (the former Kingdom of Two Sicilies) like a colony. Industry was robbed and Neapolitans/Sicilians were used as cheap labor.

No such thing as albanian gene, albania literally means white/white mountains.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alban_Hills

The Alban Hills (Italian Colli Albani) are the site of a quiescent volcanic complex in Italy, located 20 km (12 mi) southeast of Rome and about 24 kilometres (15 mi) north of Anzio.

The dominant peak (but not the highest) is Monte Cavo at 950 m. There are two small calderas which contain lakes, Lake Albano and Lake Nemi. The rock of the hills is called peperino (lapis albanus) a variety of tuff, a combination of volcanic ash and small rocks that is useful for construction, and provides a mineral-rich substrate for vineyards.

Vaffanculo americani e tue false proiezioni.

>>2682703
Whatever. It's a fact that the Messapians weren't Italic. The most credited theory is that they were an Illyrian tribe. Their language even looks a lot like Albanian: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messapian_language
