We have this in Germany too. Traditionally, the area where I live hates the area where I was born. These two places are maybe an hour apart and in the same state. All because they were governed by different nobles ages ago who had different ideas about Christianity. Tbh though it was much more of a thing in my parents’ generation.
In Germany, hating others based on where they were born becomes more socially accepted the closer the “other” gets.
Hating people from other countries is bad, hating people from East Germany is problematic, hating people from the neighboring German state is OK and hating people from the neighboring village is funny.
Damn, that’s surprisingly apt.
I mean? If it leads to a mostly harmless rivalry, that’s quite fun.
Somehow, I get the feeling it’s not that.
Yes I have experienced the exact same. I was questioned by “locals” when I moved villages. They wanted to know if I was doing enough for the community and keeping up with local events. My man I was born less than 10kms away.
I guess they just prefer inbreeding and keeping the village to themselves. Not realizing without all the new construction and new people the village would have died out 20 years ago.
OK, this is not unique to old established places, as out here in settler land, where dispossession of the original folk was only a generation or three ago, if you move into an insular village or island, you don’t get to be a local for about 20 years. Maybe, if you satisfy the right cliques.
