    That’s not how I as a German view my own country or my neighbors. Just in case any Czech or Polish people are wondering.

      It’s the British („Inselaffen“) the Germans compare to apes

      I second this. I never heard anyone referring Czech or Polish people to apes and also never heard that Polish people are overly angry in any way compared to others.

        Polish* media seems to be very upset about Germany whenever it comes to football.

        *some. Probably the shittier newspapers.

        All the Poles I have met personally were fine people.

    The germans i know usually view themself more in line with the specific culture in their region. (Bavarian, Nordic etc.)

    Some highschoolers in 2080 will have to study these memes in history class and they are going to be super confused.

    If the Czech view themselves as “The Good Soldier Švejk” why aren’t they rejoining with Austria. I am sure we can dig out some leftover Habsburgers for that K&K feeling.

    Polish stereotypes to me, as a German:
    Older: thieving
    Nowadays (my own experience): * crazy insane in a fun way

    • Always tinkering like fixing crashed cars and reselling them
    • Bass guitar (probably selection bias)

Welcome to YUROP
The Ultimate Eurozone of Culture, Chaos, and Continental Excellence

A glorious gathering place to celebrate (and lovingly roast) the lands, peoples, quirks, and contradictions of Her Most Magnificent Europa. From the fjords to the Med, the steppes to the Atlantic spray, this is a shrine to everything that makes Europe gloriously weird, wonderfully diverse, and occasionally passive-aggressive in 24 languages.

Here we toast:
🇪🇺 The progressive Union of Peace (and paperwork)
🧀 The freest of health care
🍷 The finest of foods
🏳️‍🌈 The liberalest of liberties
🌍 The proud non-members and honorary cousins 💶 And the eternal dance of unity, confusion, and cultural banter.

Post memes, news, satire, linguistic wars, train maps, cursed food photos, Eurovision fever, propaganda and whatever makes you scream “only in YUROP.”

Leave your stereotypes at the border control and enjoy the ride.
