Italy is more americanized ("latin") than Spain. Spain sounds like Germany more. Spaniards disrespect the tomatoes and Italy adores it. In mexico tomatoes are sacred like corn and chiles. So Italy is more mexican than Spain.
Ciao carissimo amico mio !.. Grazie del link e benvenuto in Italia !.. torna a trovarci !.. ti scrivo dall’Italia , Appennino est della Toscana , Parco Nazionale delle Foreste Casentinesi. A presto 🥰🙂
Sicily is Spain, Puglia is Greece, Campania is Turkey, Piemonte is French, Trentino is Austria, Friuli is Slavic etc etc.. Italy is the center of Mediterranean and European culture, we love you all, in particular your girls 🥺
Yes , the South Italy Is very similar with Spain, the centre of Italy Is similar ti France , the North Is similar with Austria look the history , Rome was under controll of France before the italian Union , the South the spanish , and the North french/Austrian empire
actually not, maybe the southern part of Italy (Terroni) than Northern ITalians, even the language is different, Spanish has not the rules as itlaian mangiare >>>> comer.
@@davidesperanza7701 Yes, Dutch is not German, Just like Spanish is not ITalian, in fact they do share it less than many people would think, spanish and portuguese are way more closer than Spanish italian. the fact that auxiliar verb changes in Itlaian and French doesn't exist in in Spanish and portugues at all, they have more foreign influence like arabic.
As an Italian, Portugal is by far the best country I have seen so far: fascinating history, wonderful climate, superb (and underrated) cuisine , nice, friendly and relaxed people, gorgeous architecture. Lisbon is the perfect city for me ❤️ 🇵🇹
I'm Greek and i've lived in both of these countries. I love them. The Mediterranean people have very much in common regarding mentality and only small differences. I really feel like home there. 🇮🇹🇪🇸🇬🇷
I really like all of them, and we all have a lot of similarities. And I really love the Balkans! You are the Europe that many people don’t know. Very nice landsacapes, really good food (cevapis, sarma, pleskavica, burek...) very friendly people, more similar to us than I expected and really party hard people 😄 Хаjде!!
I have to say, from Spain, that for spaniards Italy is like home. It's something difficult to understand, but even Portugal or France are slightly different, but when you enter in Italy you know you are at home. The food, the people, the smells, the oil, the wheather, the real cofee (no the tipical anglosaxon wishy washy cofee, even though is improving), etc. In fact it's not strange since even today in my home city, near to Barcelona, the Rome presence is visible. Even the city's name comes from an ancient Roman villae sited here. And it's curious to know that in Catalonia region cannelloni are a typical meal in Christmas. At the end we are the same country in the cultural sense.
Hei, spanish coffee is among the worst in Europe. Nice in Italy and Portugal, also in Norway, where I’m living now. France and Spain: shit coffee. (Asking for a cortado is always a risk😆).
I remember my first time in spain, in 1986. After the long "autoroute du soleil" in france, the first thing i saw in spain was a big black bull merchindising panel ! I felt myself at home! I can't explain why, but that was my feeling at the moment...
That makes sense, we are not cousins, but brothers. I come from Sicily, and when I go to Spain, especially in Catalunya, I feel 1000% at home. Same buildings, atmosphere, same Sun. Rome colonized and latinized Spain heavily and centuries later you came back to South when you had your own Kingdom. This mix created a lot of similarity.
well, you know what? i am at peace with that part. If we loose against spanish team we loose with the best. Nowadays is your turn to shine and is always les bitter to loose to your teams, than to others from other countries. Also in moto GP is Spanish era. A true sportsman recognize it. We italian still make it sometimes. But golden ages is over for us, or close to an end. Buena Suerte a Espana en esta temporada tan fea de Maldita Pandemia. Abrazos desde Italia
Yeah, so many conflicts, better for us to forget about 2015, Rossi is a legend, Marq as well, but I think that all that happened in that season have to be in the past. Greetings from a Lorenzo fan

For us Italians, I don’t know why the French are usually named the “cousins” beyond the Alps... but certainly the Spaniards are our brothers!! We and the Spanish people can perfectly understand each other both emotionally and physical, both if we speak due to 80% of the words are similar, both if we’re silent and look into the eyes.
Y si tengo que hablar con un italiano, hablo en español porque él me entiende y yo entiendo el italiano. No uso el inglés porque me parece extraño hablar en ingles con un italiano.
@@wassermann2911976 ok ma si capisce molto di più uno spagnolo che un francese (a livello di lingua parlata). La differenza la si nota di più nello scritto

@@chrisofmelbourne87 I include greece, no doubt! I love the Greek personality. I feel that Portugal, Spain, Italy and Greece are so similar and at the same time each one with its unique tone.
I've never heard anyone in Italy saying anything bad about Spain or Spaniards. Yep, a pretty intense football rivalry, but that's it. I've been there like 5 times on holiday and once for Erasmus and I was treated like family. Also, plenty of similiraties in the way we live. For Italians, Spain is home and Spaniards are brothers.
Because we share pretty much the same type of culture. When you walk through London you clearly know when that group of guys is Italian or Spanish cause you only hear them in the subway 🤣
As italian I find this video, made by a "neutral" danish source, rather realistic. Anyway we, spanish and italians, are brothers in a large latin family.

I’m Italian and I’m currently living in Spain. I agree with everything, except for when you said that Spain is more diverse in terms of landscapes, climate (number 5)... I would say they’re both very diverse, since we also have mountains like the Dolomites, but for example if you go to the South like Sicily it looks like a completely different country, so I think number 5 is a tie😁 Love Spain from Italy!❤️
Actually, in Spain you also have tropical climate which is very interesting. But yes, overall both countries are around equal. Honestly, the gastronomy in Spain is also diverse, the point is that it is not that mainstream as in Italy. In Spain, to have a proper Spanish food you need to eat with locals and families! One love to both countries...
@@peterbound2119 Not at all. The top countries for bio-diversity are USA, Brazil, India and China, obviously because of their dimensions. Brazil has probably more species of arthropodes and plants than the other countries all togheter. Canada and Russia also are huge countries but they are cold for the most and have not so different environments, so the species are not as much as the first four. Australia is the most specific, speaking about species, but they are not so diverse, because they have less diversity among mammals (because of the marsupials). I'm already read about Italy would top for bio diversity but it's a clear fake. Maybe in Europe, not in the world, at all.
@@RonaldoKalunga in italy it is the same! If you don't want to eat mainstream food, you must search it in last traditional restaurants and better in private family with a grandmother! For example: all the world know italy for pasta, like spaghetti and so on. I'm a little bit old, and i can tell you that in my infantry, my family never coocked pasta of "grano duro" ... it was not traditional..
I'm Italian and I love the UK. You guys have a rich history, it's different from ours but beautiful in its own way. If you have Netflix I recommend you to watch "Secrets of Great British Castles" by Dan Jones. Incredibile documentary.
I am from Serbia and I have met beautiful people from both countries. I visited Italy once but Spain is currently on hold. Honestly, I love Italy and Spain from bottom of my heart.
I’m from italy and I absolutely love Serbia and Serbians.❤ I listen to your folk music almost every day, it impossibly beautiful and such interesting complex rhythms, more advanced than our simple Western Europe folk music.
As an Italian, I'm quite sure there's no stronger bond than the one between Italy and Spain 🇮🇹❤️🇪🇸 We are brother nations, if we had a problem, we would simply solve it on a football pitch hahaha Respect for Portugal 🇵🇹and Greece🇬🇷too, our proud Latin friends!
@@ledues3336 Opinione poco familiare però vera, noi con i francesi condividiamo molto similianze soprattutto linguisticamente. Però gli spagnoli culturalmente, storicamente etc sono molto più legati a noi quindi se dobbiamo trovare dei fratelli nel mediterraneo sono senza dubbio gli spagnoli
Great comment but, there is one problem with it amigo. Latin = Spanish, Portuguese and Italian. Greek is not a of that grouo, is it a = hellenic language. Hellenic (Greek) is far older than Latin and is in fact the oldest written language still in use today (1450B.C.). The root is also distinct. Saludos

As someone looking to for a home as an immigrant / expat, I feel so bad that Spain and Italy both became retirement homes for older people, and are not such attractive locations for a young person to permanently move to because of their inferior economy compared to other European countries like Germany, Denmark, Sweden and such.
Same! I'm italian, but if I wasn't I would be Greek, Spanish or Portuguese. I traveled a lot, but Greece will be always in my heart ♥️ beautiful warm peaple that made me fell at home❤️ everyone should visit your country!

All cities were founded by Greeks there, and the colture Is very close to greece, in fact in some villages people speak still ancient Greek. Sorry for my bad English, greetings from Italy to all my Spanish and Greeks brothers!

@@echipuosaperlo ma direi di no, non mi ritengo patriottico, ma l'Italia ha un sistema sanitario ottimo, sempre nella top 10 globale e nel 2018 secondi, inoltre l'economia italiana è più forte di quella spagnola, il PIL è maggiore e il PIL procapite è uguale. Il sistema di trasporti pubblici fa un po pena, ma è molto economico confrontato con il resto del mondo. Inoltre l'Italia ha un sistema scolastico pratico ed efficace, non risulta mai nella top 10 semplicemente per il basso tasso di laureati (indice che molte persone si specializzino già alle superiori come elettricisti e idraulici). Ah un altra cosa, se si escludono le colonie francesi in sud America e nel pacifico, l'Italia è il paese con più biodiversità d'Europa. E altro ancora l'Italia è il paese con più patrimoni UNESCO al pari con la Cina. Quindi concludendo posso dire che non siamo gli ultimi al mondo(nona economia dopo essere stati superati da India e Brasile) e non aiuta il paese il continuo gettare merda sulla nazione, senza considerare che il vero male di questo paese sono gli Italiani.

Nikolas what to say. I am from Magna Grecia Apulian City. And god if i like Greece. Barion , Bari is where i live . And if you go farther south you find Grecia Salentina, Salentinian Greece. I always love to come visit there. Adelphos.
Btw in italy we talk a lot whit our hands because in 1861 when italy was unificated in every region There were a lot of languages and people very often didn't understand each other so we used our hands to help us understand
@@gus1thego I think the more a place is historically multicultural and people live mainly outside due to the warmer climate, the more they will tend to speak loudly and use more hand gestures. Since ancient time Italy was full of crowded cities mainly along the coast, with people coming from all over the Mediterranean region and with intence commercial activity. So they developed that loudly and gesticulating attitude.
Before and after the unification of Italy we already spoke romance languages. I don't think it had been to much challenging to communicate speaking just slowly and with a lingua franca (italian) already spreading.
Creo que el resultado final es un empate. Dificilísimo decantarse por ninguno de los dos.... Por cierto, en el vídeo se abusa de Roma y Barcelona. Italia y España son muchísimo más que esas dos ciudades.
I was expecting hate comments, but what a nice suprise not seeing any! I think that we both are great countries and underrated in Europe! Love from Spain
@Jim I guess he's talking about international relations. France and Germany are the real economical motors of the Union. Italy comes very close to those two being an industrial power (biggest industry in Europe indeed) and second biggest market; but it's still problematic, a huge divide between the north and the south and the worst problem: a very ugly debt. Spain's in a similar situation but not as extreme, meaning that its economy is strong but arguably a bit less than Italy's but at the same time debt is also much lower. But we're getting there, I believe that soon we'll be able to harmonise our economies even more and at that point … who knows … Finally uniting in something like the United States of Europe is a pretty chilling idea for me, and I think it's doable and well worth it.
@@tacitozetticci9308 Dobbiamo prima unirci: Italia, Spagna, Grecia, Portogallo. Dobbiamo uscire dal nostro complesso di inferiorità rispetto ai paesi del nord. Siamo gli eredi diretti delle grandi culture e lingue dell'antica Grecia e Roma. Facciamo affari insieme, costruiamo un'etica forte, come fecero i nordici, e cresciamo. Poi parleremo con loro come pari.
People from Spain are "latinamericanized"????? Are the british more australianised and Portuguese more Brazilianized? Maybe Nigerians are too Haitinized too???
@d0dFLyEr In America there weren't spanish colonies , but clones of Spain; "virreinatos" (under kingdons); as the "Virreinato of Nueva España" wich comprehended: Mexico, Nuevo México,California, Colorado, Nevada, Arizona and Florida.

@@danielburden7373 Yes. But Spain had not colonies. As the Roman Empire , they look for the replication of the Castilian society in the rests of the world in a continuation of the Reconquista.

Philippines is the extended country of Spain outside EU. And we got the name of are country "Philippines" in behalf of of King Philip of Spain. You search it if you want to know about Philippines. Thanks and God bless.
I'm Italian And when I go to Spain I feel at home. then the nice thing is that you go to Spain and find Roman walls, in Italy we have Spanish walls. this is because (also given the proximity) our cultures have approached and mixed over the centuries. while not really hating the French and the Germans (but we say that) i've never heard anything negative towards Spain. we are Mediterranean brothers

"Spanish food": shows only tapas (jeez) and nachos (those are Mexican) Spanish food is veeeeeery different from one region to another, the dishes we eat in one place are very different from the typical dishes you can find in another place. So yeah, when you say "Spanish food", there's no one way to describe it and tourists only know 3 dishes and they thinks that's all the Spanish cuisine, which is... sad.
And That's why spanish is the second most spoken language by numbers of native speakers only behind chinese. I'm spanish and I haven't studied Italian in my life, but I can understand them with their movements and intonation, italian and spanish are very simililar,portuguese as well
Actually, Spain and all of Europe have been influenced by Latin America, our food, music, literature. Hundreds of words from Amerindian languages have entered the Spanish and Portuguese lexicons. Plus, you cannot colonize a civilization and not exchange genes!! It's simply impossible. I'm a proud Latino and I love Spain, Portugal e specialmente L'Italia!
I'm from Italy, Florence. I love/hate my country. In general I love all the countries I have visited. What I like about other countries is the differences I find with my own, points of view that I had never taken into consideration. But when I think of Spain, I see it as Italy's sister, but with less hypocrisy and corruption. It seems to me that Spain has a slightly more modern mentality than Italy.

Come italiano che ama profondamente la Spagna, dico: non perdete tempo a chiedervi qual è il Paese più bello, venite a visitarli entrambi. Un abbraccio agli amici spagnoli.
My favorite country without a doubt is Italy. (From Spain) Amo la lingua perché è molto melodica, il cibo è delizioso, i monumenti incredibili e soprattutto la gente: meravigliosa. Sono andato 5 volte in Italia e sempre voglio ritornare. Da sempre mi è piaciuto un sacco la lingua, ecco perché ho deciso di impararla da solo, ascoltando delle canzone e parlando con i miei amici italiani. Mi piacerebbe molto andare vivere lì e godere della cultura. Non ho usato nessun traduttore quindi non so se quello che ho scritto è corretto, ma spero di sì. Un grande abbraccio ai italiani, nostri fratelli d'Europa ❤️❤️
Solo 2 piccole correzioni, dovevi scrivere "ascoltando delle canzoni, al posto di "canzone" (perché é plurale)" e "andare A vivere lì" (hai dimenticato la "a"). Per il resto, complimenti, è tutto giusto! Grazie per le parole, sono stato a Barcellona una volta e mi é piaciuta molto
È reciproco amico! Stiamo sempre vicini con il 💓 o con la mente. La Spagna è la mia favorita come quella di millioni di Italiani. Grazie per il suo apprezzamento. Un abbraccio

How is it going? Do you find it relatively easy considering that they are both Latin languages and so have cognates and such? Also, do you have knowledge of Portuguese or French? Or do you Speak Spanish and English only?
@@sunshinexoxo6107 portuguese and french are easy as well (especially when you read it), maybe french is a little more complicated.

Then we thought- what?! 😅😃😃😃 We asked how he recognised that we are lithuanians, Then he said- because lithuanians are basketball nation, you are so tall people , you have a legends Sabonis, Marčiulionis, and girls, you are so tall and beautiful that is why I thought you are lithuanians 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I don’t know, maybe that man have been inloved with lithuanian women or he really is a fan of our basketball stars 😃 But what I noticed that some italian people which we met, especially generation over 45-50, they really recognise lithuanians because of our basketball stars and because of our height 😅😊 younger generation or people who didn’t have been interested in basketball, I am not sure if they would recognise lithuanians :) but what is obvious that lithuanian national religion sometimes is called a basketball 😅😃 I hope you will visit Lithuania next years or someday and you will see our beautiful country!

I find that mostly true. I am italian but if you go to the North, Italy becomes more efficient and clean and Better organized.

As Spanish, Portuguese and Italian are really close as we are mostly mutually intelligible. Portuguese writen is almost like old spanish. However, Portuguese pronunciation is really different to the Italian or Spanish one. Italian seems to be more intelligible for Spanish speakers when speaking. I love Italy!
What I noticed so far is both Italian and Spanish so much value they families. They love their mother so much. Everything is their Mama. Souther Europeans in the Mediterranean region, are being warmer and friendly at comparison with Northern Europeana that slightly cold and rigid. Maybe a good weather influence with sufficient sunlight they land has. Italy and Spain if in Asia are just like South Korea and Japan in East Asia, or Indonesia and the Philippines in Southeast Asia. Almost similar to each other. I am from Indonesia, Southeast Asia. I expect, you create similar videos in the Asian region. Especially about the hated and loved country.
Now anytime someone mention family and Spanish or Italian "LA FAMILIA ES TODO" badass quote comes to my mind. Bruh I love the authentic mafia cultures in this countries.
I'm italian. I was on holiday in Greece two years ago and on the first day all people were asking me "Are you Spanish?". For a whole day I answered "No, I'm italian." to everyone. Then on the second day I started to greet everyone with "Hola!" and my sister looked at me and asked me if I was crazy. I replied that it was less tiring to please everyone. 🤣
That's funny, something similar happened to me when I was in Prague. I'm from Spain and many people there asked me if I was Italian when they heard me speak (in english).
It's curious because the greek pronunciation is more similar to the spanish than italian. If you listen greek people and spanish people talking in english you can hear the same accent jaja
True... but a strong minority of italian people maintain solid progressist roots yet. Also, italian people are politically unpredictable sometimes: we are a little bit schizofrenic in that matter, probably because we have to face same long-terms problems every time...
@Alessia Bellantone Italy is amazing I traveled many European countries last year and i can say it’s one of the best countries in the world by far ♥️ from Turkey
Italians are louder and more flamboyant, the South of Italy is poorer than the north but Spain is more equal all around, Spain looks more modern but Italy is more enchanting and beautiful too.
Good neutral advice. Spain is now way more modern than Italy because all infrastructures are new,. It’s not the case in Italy where almost nothing new has been built during the last 40 /50 years
Actually for me, an Italian living next to the economical capital of the country (Milan), this difference is not so diverse. I've been in Vigo, Galizia and heard the EXACT same things I hear here: "those in the south don't want to work, they only want to dance and do fiesta and get money from the country" 😅 😂 🤣
Southern italy has much more culture, Mid-South has the best Italian food and culture. By the "Calzone al forno" to the tasty "Carbonara(Pasta with guanciale that is a type of ham, eggs and pecorino)
@@Manuel-zc7po south spain is extremely beutiful with a lot of diverse with a ot of arabic arquitecture. I think Abdalucia is uncomparable with other places in thr world.
I'm Libyan and I love them both but for me Italy for sure. The people there are HILARIOUS and keep you entertained at all times. The cuisine is out of this world, the archaeology, the fashion. Every aspect of Italian culture is 12/10. I plan on spending the rest of my life there one day
i think spaniard are more european, we italians have more heritage and similarities to north Africa and middle east, in the way we act and look at the world, that s what makes us unique in Europe. But most people, knowing nothing about north Africa and middle east, don t get that.
Im from Slovenia and im busker (street musician) i lived and played in both Italy and Spain a lot. I have a son in Barcelona. It"s difficult to make some general compares, because even inside of these countries there are huge differences. North and south of Italy are two completely different countries,so is in Spain. Catalonia and Basque country are so different from Andalucia or Castilla,for example. I would say that Spanish are more open and liberal towards foreigners and Italians are more traditional. In the other hand Italians are more generous from my perspective. Women in Spain are much more open,that"s for sure! All in all i love both countries, but i love Spain a little bit more!
@@1900VIRGINIABA whats your point? I put an other example as an extreme culture ,as he was in catalonia i suggested to come to the south cause we are quite differents.. thats mean, im not underated others lol
I’m Spanish but I’ve lived in Italy and Italian people are so nice, especially the ones in the South (Puglia). One of the main differences between us is also the fear of speaking a foreign language. Whereas Italians are more likely to try to speak a foreign language even though they don’t speak it fluently or don’t speak it at all, Spanish people are TOO shy to do that (I don’t include myself because I’m a polyglot 😅) and will never speak Italian as good as Italians speak Spanish.
Only thing I do not fully agree: the fact you can cook Italian food at your home... is because it’s simpler as initial concept (not less tasty or good). You have just limited spanish gastronomy to “tapas” which is just the previous thing to eat before going home, or the day you are all day out with friends. Pretty inaccurate and simplifying point, that one. The rest was awesome!
He says that Spain is "Latin Americanized" and when he talks about Spanish food he shows some nachos, really?... in my opinion he does not have enough knowledge on the subject.
I don't understand what you're going on about with tapas and more tapas. Tapas are neither a dish, nor a preparation, nor anything else. It is a way of serving food, simply a small portion of anything served with a drink. In the north they are not called tapas, but "pinchos" because it is mainly food that can be served skewered on a slice of bread. It's like saying that the fish and chips paper cone or the MacDonalds tray is a gastronomic thing in itself.
As an italian: definitely the closest culture to Italian-one. I think you took the point with the main difference that is "what people think about me" mentality
Actually Spain is the most bio-diverse country in Europe! Italy is the second. In Spain we have continental climate at the center, oceanic climate at the north, mediterranean at the south and east, alpine on the mountain areas, tropical in the islands and arid at the south-east :)
@S E the canary Islands has subtropical climate. Also If you type “most biodiverse country in europe” on google It says Spain. I’m studying tourism so I know what I’m talking about haha
@S E Spain has the highest number of flora species in Europe (8000-9000) (Italy has 6.700) and the highest number of fauna species (60.000-70.000) (Italy has 57.000)
@S E It literally says: spain has the highest number of vascular plants and Spain has between 60.000 and 70.000 species of fauna. If you search the number of fauna species of Italy, It says 57.000. Also we’re always been taught at school that Spain is the most biodiverse country in Europe, every spaniard think that😅maybe we’re all been living a lie who knows😂

Thank you
I have to say, from Spain, that for spaniards Italy is like home. It's something difficult to understand, but even Portugal or France are slightly different, but when you enter in Italy you know you are at home. The food, the people, the smells, the oil, the wheather, the real cofee (no the tipical anglosaxon wishy washy cofee, even though is improving), etc. In fact it's not strange since even today in my home city, near to Barcelona, the Rome presence is visible. Even the city's name comes from an ancient Roman villae sited here. And it's curious to know that in Catalonia region cannelloni are a typical meal in Christmas. At the end we are the same country in the cultural sense.
Hei, spanish coffee is among the worst in Europe. Nice in Italy and Portugal, also in Norway, where I’m living now. France and Spain: shit coffee. (Asking for a cortado is always a risk😆).
I remember my first time in spain, in 1986. After the long "autoroute du soleil" in france, the first thing i saw in spain was a big black bull merchindising panel ! I felt myself at home! I can't explain why, but that was my feeling at the moment...
That makes sense, we are not cousins, but brothers.
I come from Sicily, and when I go to Spain, especially in Catalunya, I feel 1000% at home.
Same buildings, atmosphere, same Sun.
Rome colonized and latinized Spain heavily and centuries later you came back to South when you had your own Kingdom.
This mix created a lot of similarity.
@@obonillo agreed, Spain has many great things but coffee isn’t one of them- Italy and Portugal have the best coffee in Europe
Being in Spain for a Neapolitan it's like being at home
Italy and spain are like brothers.. but we don’t have to talk about football and motogp😂
well, you know what? i am at peace with that part. If we loose against spanish team we loose with the best.

I've never heard anyone in Italy saying anything bad about Spain or Spaniards. Yep, a pretty intense football rivalry, but that's it. I've been there like 5 times on holiday and once for Erasmus and I was treated like family. Also, plenty of similiraties in the way we live. For Italians, Spain is home and Spaniards are brothers.
Because we share pretty much the same type of culture. When you walk through London you clearly know when that group of guys is Italian or Spanish cause you only hear them in the subway 🤣

I’m Italian and I’m currently living in Spain. I agree with everything, except for when you said that Spain is more diverse in terms of landscapes, climate (number 5)... I would say they’re both very diverse, since we also have mountains like the Dolomites, but for example if you go to the South like Sicily it looks like a completely different country, so I think number 5 is a tie😁
Love Spain from Italy!❤️
Actually, in Spain you also have tropical climate which is very interesting. But yes, overall both countries are around equal. Honestly, the gastronomy in Spain is also diverse, the point is that it is not that mainstream as in Italy. In Spain, to have a proper Spanish food you need to eat with locals and families! One love to both countries...
@@peterbound2119 Not at all. The top countries for bio-diversity are USA, Brazil, India and China, obviously because of their dimensions. Brazil has probably more species of arthropodes and plants than the other countries all togheter. Canada and Russia also are huge countries but they are cold for the most and have not so different environments, so the species are not as much as the first four. Australia is the most specific, speaking about species, but they are not so diverse, because they have less diversity among mammals (because of the marsupials). I'm already read about Italy would top for bio diversity but it's a clear fake. Maybe in Europe, not in the world, at all.
@@peterbound2119 The most biodiverse county in Europe is Spain, but not even close to many tropical or much bigger countries
@@RonaldoKalunga in italy it is the same! If you don't want to eat mainstream food, you must search it in last traditional restaurants and better in private family with a grandmother!

Btw in italy we talk a lot whit our hands because in 1861 when italy was unificated in every region There were a lot of languages and people very often didn't understand each other so we used our hands to help us understand
wow cool, thanks for sharing
@@gus1thego I think the more a place is historically multicultural and people live mainly outside due to the warmer climate, the more they will tend to speak loudly and use more hand gestures.
Since ancient time Italy was full of crowded cities mainly along the coast, with people coming from all over the Mediterranean region and with intence commercial activity. So they developed that loudly and gesticulating attitude.
Before and after the unification of Italy we already spoke romance languages. I don't think it had
been to much challenging to communicate speaking just slowly and with a lingua franca (italian) already spreading.
That'a a myth. Italian as a lingua franca in the peninsula existed since the late middle ages/Renaissance.
Good explanation.

Why underrated? Two of the most visited countries in the world. Envied, maybe, but not underrated for sure. 😄
@Jim I guess he's talking about international relations. France and Germany are the real economical motors of the Union. Italy comes very close to those two being an industrial power (biggest industry in Europe indeed) and second biggest market; but it's still problematic, a huge divide between the north and the south and the worst problem: a very ugly debt. Spain's in a similar situation but not as extreme, meaning that its economy is strong but arguably a bit less than Italy's but at the same time debt is also much lower.
But we're getting there, I believe that soon we'll be able to harmonise our economies even more and at that point … who knows …
Finally uniting in something like the United States of Europe is a pretty chilling idea for me, and I think it's doable and well worth it.
@@tacitozetticci9308 Dobbiamo prima unirci: Italia, Spagna, Grecia, Portogallo. Dobbiamo uscire dal nostro complesso di inferiorità rispetto ai paesi del nord. Siamo gli eredi diretti delle grandi culture e lingue dell'antica Grecia e Roma. Facciamo affari insieme, costruiamo un'etica forte, come fecero i nordici, e cresciamo. Poi parleremo con loro come pari.
People from Spain are "latinamericanized"?????
Are the british more australianised and Portuguese more Brazilianized? Maybe Nigerians are too Haitinized too???

@d0dFLyEr
In America there weren't spanish colonies , but clones of Spain; "virreinatos" (under kingdons); as the "Virreinato of Nueva España" wich comprehended: Mexico, Nuevo México,California, Colorado, Nevada, Arizona and Florida.
i think he meant that Spaniards are more open to assimilate other people from different cultures compared to other European countries bc of their ex-colonies
@@danielburden7373
Yes. But Spain had not colonies. As the Roman Empire , they look for the replication of the Castilian society in the rests of the world in a continuation of the Reconquista. The principal goal were the incorporation of China, as the previous step for the definitive Víctory over the Ottoman Empire.
Brasil and Haití are also latinoamerica..

My favorite country without a doubt is Italy. (From Spain)
Amo la lingua perché è molto melodica, il cibo è delizioso, i monumenti incredibili e soprattutto la gente: meravigliosa. Sono andato 5 volte in Italia e sempre voglio ritornare. Da sempre mi è piaciuto un sacco la lingua, ecco perché ho deciso di impararla da solo, ascoltando delle canzone e parlando con i miei amici italiani. Mi piacerebbe molto andare vivere lì e godere della cultura.
Non ho usato nessun traduttore quindi non so se quello che ho scritto è corretto, ma spero di sì.
Un grande abbraccio ai italiani, nostri fratelli d'Europa ❤️❤️
complimenti fratello per il tuo italiano, applausi :)
Bravissimo! Italiano quasi perfetto ;) 👏🏼
Solo 2 piccole correzioni, dovevi scrivere "ascoltando delle canzoni, al posto di "canzone" (perché é plurale)" e "andare A vivere lì" (hai dimenticato la "a"). Per il resto, complimenti, è tutto giusto!
Grazie per le parole, sono stato a Barcellona una volta e mi é piaciuta molto

How is it going? Do you find it relatively easy considering that they are both Latin languages and so have cognates and such? Also, do you have knowledge of Portuguese or French? Or do you Speak Spanish and English only?
@@sunshinexoxo6107 portuguese and french are easy as well (especially when you read it), maybe french is a little more complicated. But italian is very easy when reading and especially when you hear people talking .The italian pronounciation is closer to spanish pronounciation. So you can understand the majority of a message. Hearing portuguese or french is more difficult for spaniards to understand, although you can understand some things if you pay attention.
But yeah the closest for us in terms of speaking and understanding is italian.
@@pepemotosmoreno3020 ohhhh I have always been curious about that.

As Spaniard, I must admit that Italy is more monumental and excels in every art discipline far and beyond any other European nation. Spain, however has this impressive mix of Christian and Muslim cultural heritage that makes it unique.
Don't forget the Jews who also made a great contribution to the making of Castile and were thrown out by those very loving Christians.
@@jamesbovington8218 Certainly, despite the expulsion or forced conversion, there is a well preserved Jewish heritage in many Spanish towns, particularly in Toledo. Santa Maria la Blanca and El Tránsito synagogues compete in beauty with some of the most remarkable beacons of Muslim architecture. In my comment I was referring to ruling entities, but your point is very well taken.

@Leandro Poli hehe, as much as I remember, in Italy people recognize us as lithuanians, because we are quite or even really tall people :D
I remember, when I have been with my friends in Roseto degli Abruzzi, we wanted to buy a strawberry ice-cream.
we walked near the place where is ice cream and the staff men said- Lituania?!
Basketball, basketball!
Then we thought- what?! 😅😃😃😃
We asked how he recognised that we are lithuanians,
Then he said- because lithuanians are basketball nation, you are so tall people , you have a legends Sabonis, Marčiulionis, and girls, you are so tall and beautiful that is why I thought you are lithuanians 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I don’t know, maybe that man have been inloved with lithuanian women or he really is a fan of our basketball stars 😃
But what I noticed that some italian people which we met, especially generation over 45-50, they really recognise lithuanians because of our basketball stars and because of our height 😅😊 younger generation or people who didn’t have been interested in basketball, I am not sure if they would recognise lithuanians :) but what is obvious that lithuanian national religion sometimes is called a basketball 😅😃
I hope you will visit Lithuania next years or someday and you will see our beautiful country! Welcome 😊😊😊

What I noticed so far is both Italian and Spanish so much value they families. They love their mother so much. Everything is their Mama. Souther Europeans in the Mediterranean region, are being warmer and friendly at comparison with Northern Europeana that slightly cold and rigid. Maybe a good weather influence with sufficient sunlight they land has. Italy and Spain if in Asia are just like South Korea and Japan in East Asia, or Indonesia and the Philippines in Southeast Asia.

Good neutral advice. Spain is now way more modern than Italy because all infrastructures are new,. It’s not the case in Italy where almost nothing new has been built during the last 40 /50 years

I’m Spanish but I’ve lived in Italy and Italian people are so nice, especially the ones in the South (Puglia). One of the main differences between us is also the fear of speaking a foreign language. Whereas Italians are more likely to try to speak a foreign language even though they don’t speak it fluently or don’t speak it at all, Spanish people are TOO shy to do that (I don’t include myself because I’m a polyglot 😅) and will never speak Italian as good as Italians speak Spanish.

Spagnoli e Italiani siamo FRATELLI!!!!!. FORZA ITALIA E VIVA ESPAÑA!!!!!. 🇪🇸🇮🇹🇪🇸🇮🇹
Only thing I do not fully agree: the fact you can cook Italian food at your home... is because it’s simpler as initial concept (not less tasty or good). You have just limited spanish gastronomy to “tapas” which is just the previous thing to eat before going home, or the day you are all day out with friends. Pretty inaccurate and simplifying point, that one. The rest was awesome!
He says that Spain is "Latin Americanized" and when he talks about Spanish food he shows some nachos, really?... in my opinion he does not have enough knowledge on the subject.
Don't be upset this guy doesn't know anything it S just the first impression!
I don't understand what you're going on about with tapas and more tapas. Tapas are neither a dish, nor a preparation, nor anything else. It is a way of serving food, simply a small portion of anything served with a drink. In the north they are not called tapas, but "pinchos" because it is mainly food that can be served skewered on a slice of bread.
It's like saying that the fish and chips paper cone or the MacDonalds tray is a gastronomic thing in itself.
As an italian: definitely the closest culture to Italian-one. I think you took the point with the main difference that is "what people think about me" mentality
"Che figura faccio?"
Italy has very diverse landscapes too though.. Just look at the map.
Actually Spain is the most bio-diverse country in Europe! Italy is the second. In Spain we have continental climate at the center, oceanic climate at the north, mediterranean at the south and east, alpine on the mountain areas, tropical in the islands and arid at the south-east :)
@S E the canary Islands has subtropical climate. Also If you type “most biodiverse country in europe” on google It says Spain. I’m studying tourism so I know what I’m talking about haha
@S E Spain has the highest number of flora species in Europe (8000-9000) (Italy has 6.700) and the highest number of fauna species (60.000-70.000) (Italy has 57.000)
@S E www.cbd.int/countries/profile/?country=es I found It here
@S E It literally says: spain has the highest number of vascular plants and Spain has between 60.000 and 70.000 species of fauna. If you search the number of fauna species of Italy, It says 57.000.
Also we’re always been taught at school that Spain is the most biodiverse country in Europe, every spaniard think that😅maybe we’re all been living a lie who knows😂
Great video, I’m Italian and I’m totally agree.. you are very very good to catch details, you are a professional observer😂💪🏼 Hola España, mis hermanos! 🇪🇸 🇮🇹
thanks 🤪
