3. alsace, hands down. best food in the world!
the soil there is pitch black, it's so rich. fresh veggies actually taste wonderful, and i normally hate veggies. plus the people there are really friendly.

of course, most french are really friendly, just so long as you're not a tourist in paris, and at least TRY to speak their language....

8. For all the people saying Prussia, you're incorrect
Prussia was not a possession of Germany so much as Germany was a possession of Prussia.

15. Swiss German border is Baden-Wuerttemberg. Whic is also a CDU...
stronghold.

Rule of thumb: traditionally Catholic areas are CDU areas.
