Italian history:

Shitty-city-states declare war on each other, hire mercenaries, because like 3 people live in each state too little for an army, and they literally make deals to not kill eachother too much and take it easy.

Much nicer people than the French who are the rudest arses I've ever met in Europe. The amazing thing is that French people don't even think they're being rude, they consider themselves correct and superior. If, when offered a holiday, I had to choose between Napoli and ANY French city I would choose Naples in a heartbeat.

My parents love Italy, so we spent one week every year in the northern tourist destinations like Lido di Jesolo, Caorle, Eraclea Mare, Porto Santa Margherita, etc. We started going to Italy when I was 4 and stopped when I was around 16, so I've been to Italy more than 11 times.
Italians were always extremely nice to us over there and their restaurants are top tier. But we've always been bothered by the niggers on the beaches that tried to sell us bead necklaces and other stuff three times a day.
I know tourist destinations are probably very different from the real "core" Italy, because people there are used to being in contact with tourists. So I don't really know what to think of Italy in general. But if it's only half as nice as the places I visited, it's still a great country.
>>
>>56485907
To nuance this a bit
Italy has one of the worst chad crowd, and it pretty much glorifies its own degenerate version of the chad culture as a good stereotype to try to attain. So yeah, ridiculous flashy shirts openes to the navel, gold chains, big bling belt buckles etc. Women aming them are very trashy with prostitutes dress and platform shoes.
They have a great fashion industry and some tasteful design but the average Italian brand is flashy and vulgar, only a few succeed in being tasteful, but when they do they are extraordinary.

Outside of the white trash, Italians are pretty rad people, they have a lot of self depreciating humor, somewhat sad sometimes, akin to the Jews. Their country is fucked up in.many ways and they accept it even if it hurts their pride.
I love how passionate they are (yea stereotype but true) especially in the arts. They are very fun to be around.

I find it funny how nobody does legwork at the gym so they are all bulky but only from the waist up, with their shiny muscle sitting on fagotty thin legs.

I love Italian cuisine. So many mouth-watering dishes originated in Italy... Also they are masters of horror-movie genre (Argento, Fulci etc). Dont really care about the culture besides from that.
>>
I've grown to dislike Italy after reading some of the delusional comments from northern Italians about the south. It's not so much that I think they're incorrect or that I'm offended (I'm half actual Northern European, not just an Italian mudblood from Tuscany), it's that I think they're cucks. Northern Italians do not look like Northern Europeans. They look like slimy Italians, just slightly less so than their Northern counterparts. Holding to an ideology of intra-racial supremacy puts them beneath any Northern European nation.

I want to backpack in Italy this summer. I've seen Florence, (and Pisa), Venice, Bologna, Rome and Napoli. Where do you think I should go next Italian bros? Somewhere beautiful.

Well I can tell you I have italian citizenship but I don't have the means to go there at the moment (money).

But it looks like a gorgeous place.

Also I would have to learn italian, I can only manage spanish (native) and english right now, how hard is it to learn?

I only met a "real" one once. French who have italian forefathers don't go "muh heritage", so they are not annoying. You couldn't even said if one is from France or Italy. They have integrated.

As far as I know, italian culture is good.
>>
Italy seems relaxed and like it knows how too live a full life without too much autism and bullshit.
Italian neorealism is cool.

I met a lot of Italian students learning Russian in my uni, they were nice guys. We couldn't explain them what icicles are and why they shouldn't go under roofs.
Also they say there is more crime and garbage on streets in their hometown than in our Siberian town.

It's a very nice country.
They make the best cars and motorcycles in Europe.
They make the best food in Europe, in my opinion.
They have the best historical buildings in Europe. In fact, no other country in the world has as many UNESCO world heritage sites as Italy.
They also have great mountains and a great coastline at the same time.
The climate is decent, too.
Italian movies have had a massive effect on the world's cinema, although in recent years they unfortunately haven't made anything interesting.
But Italy is a great country. Too bad about the economy. It'll pick up eventually, I'm sure.

Not really you retard, most Italians would be considered menchldren by you Americans and (especially by anglos and their colonies).

The average Italian lives with his parents 'till his late 20s.

The virginity shame kinda exists but it's much, much less of an issue than in America.

It is true that they are very loud, and really passionate about stupid shit like soccer (like REALLY fixed on that) so they have some huge normie attributes, even moreso than Americans in some cases (since at least in USA you gotta choose which sport you like but in most places in Italy not liking soccer equals to social suicide).

My mother is Italian, born in Italy. Father is also Italian, but born here. My mom first brought me to Italy to her town when I was 3. I went every summer as a child. I even went to elementary school briefly. I can honestly say that I have never connected with the Italian people even though I speak the language fluently. Italians do not consider those from abroad as their brothers and sisters. If they hear you speaking English, they will look at you with such suspicion. Even if you speak Italian to them and they hear any hint of a foreign accent, they will ridicule you and mock the way you pronounce things. Italians are xenophobic and ignorant. Their attitude towards Italian Americans is the reason many in the USA abandon their culture. Meanwhile, I once traveled to Lebanon and they treat the Lebanese who visit from abroad like their brothers and sisters! Even if the person is only half Lebanese or 1/4 Lebanese. Meanwhile, I am 100 percent Italian and always had to get treated like shit in my mom's country. Italian men also dress like faggots. I don't know whats worse, the fag style in Italy or the trashy Jersey shore style of Italian Americans. Pic somewhat related. Gigi Buffon. Handsome guy, but a total cuck. His ex wife was posing naked and showing her pussy. Italian guys are also beta when it comes to bitches. Unlike Arabs and Greeks who are alpha as fuck.

The men stay at home until they are 60. The women strive to look anorexic. Otherwise, they don't care about their appearance at all, especially in the provincial areas. Armpit hair, big noses that they don't bother to fix, no makeup. Also, the women all wear jeans with gymshoes. American women almost never wear sneakers.

>>56494459
The food is good, but they are also nazis when it comes to how they have to eat. Everything has to be in order. They will ridicule you if you don't do everything the 100 percent Italian way.
