Spain's problem is in the south.
The north is superior to both France and Italy in General, or at least equal to the best parts of those.
Catalonia, for example, is richer than their border neighbours in southern France.

Spanish is considerably more similar to Latin than Italian. Idk how that came to be, but if anything, Italian is a drunker version of Latin than Spanish.

France could also be divided in North/South tbf, although I think our south isn't as "bad" as south Italy or southern Spain (and it has all the best nature)
And by bad I mean economy and shit, otherwise I'd still visit both with pleasure

Portugal immigrants do the difficult jobs, and they integrate. How could we hate you ?
>>
>>67910962
I've seen a lot of people on /int/ hating on people of Portuguese or Spanish decent but in real life I have never met bad ones and there are a lot where I live
I mean, some of them were cunts but it wasn't because of their ancestry, they were just cunts like a regular French could be
>>
>>67911020
The only annoying thing with french of spanish italian or portuguese heritage is that they just overdo it, when they say "we" talking about the country of their ancestors, even tho they don't speak the language and went there twice in their lives. Apart from that they're tip top.
>>
>>67910999
>>67911020
Portuguese diaspora in France is the absolute worst. We hate them, so we're okay with you hating them too.

For some reason the other diasporas aren't nearly as bad, though.

>>67911083
And then they come here and pretend to not know Portuguese, like they are meant to be better or something, when in France they are cleaning toilets.

There's nothing more Avec (what we call them), than hearing someone yell a French name on a beach calling their kids with the most forced French accent, followed by "Chega aqui, Caralho!", which is as Portuguese as it gets. Fuck them.

Well they considered shit tier here because people are have the image that they:


>never assimilate always going MUH Portugal, it doen'st matter if they're blonde blue eyed or a moor
>they work work work but never actually spend the money in France, they just bring it here
>they come here speaking a broken French like that makes them more educated

I could go on and on. Honestly they kinda piss me off.

>>67910962
i'll say it once, you're white, so i dont hate you.
>>
>>67911083
Yeah I agree although it's not as bad as people might think it is
Most of the "muh heritage" Iberians I've seen were still in highschool or below and dropped this shit afterwards, it's nowhere near on the level of all the North African spitting on France while pretending their country of origin is better

I mostly know people with Spanish ancestry tho, not much Portuguese ones
>>

If you start saying your country's problems are because of a region or that they're different or not really deserving to be a part of the country then you've declared your country a failed state and have abandoned national pride

Napoleon, Garibaldi and Franco would all be ashamed
>>
>>67911234
meh. More or less.

A little too much memes. For example we have some words from Arabic but we also have a shitload from Germanic, but everyone prefers the Arab memes.

Oh of course this is the worst, if they hate France so much they can leave and enjoy being frenchies in their homeland.
>>
>>67911297
I never said that tho, I'm actually from southern France and like it better than the north
And it's not like the south or the north were unified regions as far as poverty, economy etc goes, they both have their rich and poor parts

How do frenchies manage to work so little and retire so early? Wouldn't it cause a massive crisis when people are getting older and the only young ones are niggers and arabs?

This going to sound like a gigantic meme but..

France doesn't have a cancerous South.

Their South is pretty based.

Portugal Spain and Italy however..


Hot weather really fucks up those guys down South.

I always lived in a clean small city here in the North and I got disgusted the first time I went to Lisbon. Felt like another country, besides the language (plus I was little different from them looks-wise but that was not an issue).
>>
>>67911874
>France doesn't have a cancerous South.
*cough cough* MARSEILLE *cough cough*
>>
>>67911874
From what I can tell southern France is like northern Italy.
>>
>>67911915
True, but that's one city, even the rest of Provence is alright as long as you leave the coast
>>
>>67911977
South-west is full of leftist cucks, apparently.

And the east is full of africans and mag*rebis

>>67912009
That's not the impression I got when I visited the south-west tbf, I went to Dordogne and Basque country
Dordogne is very rural so I met more "redneck" people that would vote right and want to keep their countryside white, and Basque country churches were fucking full during sunday.
I Can't say my experience was the standart tho
As for the East I think it's pretty much like everywhere in France, as long as you leave cities the amount of Africans drops radically

>>67912084
I'm not saying there's only one city ruined by immigrants, but in that aspect the South isn't worse than the North
>>
>>67911915
That's your opinion, it's a pretty cool city

We all went to have dinner in a restaurant.

Typical small unassuming entrance with chalkboard with the menu outside, where you enter and there's this huge cool yellow-lit stone room. Called Adega something. Typical Portuguese restaurant/tasca. Sleazy-looking on the outside, but gorgeous on the inside with great food.

>everyone serving this typically Portuguese tasca is now either Brazilian or African
>no rose-cheeked, half-drunk, fat moustached old man telling jokes about his time in the colonial war to greet us and recommend wine.

I don't know why Italians struggle so much to cooperate with one another, they are supposedly sociable people, imagine if those companies merged and became strong global companies:

>Design & Accessories
Giorgio Armani, Benetton, Bottega Veneta, Bulgari, Diesel, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Gucci, Kappa, La Perla, Luxottica, Prada, , Gianni Versace, thousands of others...

>Food processing
Algida, Asti Spumante, Barilla, Buitoni, Campari, De Cecco, Ferrero, Galbani, Illy, Lavazza, Martini & Rossi, Parmalat, San Pellegrino, thousands of others...

>Marine Companies
Azimut, Benetti, Costa Crociere, Ferretti Group, Fincantieri, MSC Cruises, etc.


They would become invincible, buy competition in other countries and bring hundreds of billions in profit to Italy.

We're actually better off than Italy, but both of Spain's big cities (Madrid and Barcelona) are less wealthy and have less opportunities than Paris, so not really superior to France.
