    Why we are the happiest here in North Germany - cause the Weißwurstäquator is far away and there are no Mountains that are in your sight.

    Fun fact about the Hanse and its founding in Luebek: the Hanse was actually not the first organisation doing that kind of international trade. A little up north from Luebeck was the Viking village of Haitabu. The village itself was something like a central trading hub for goods out of Scandinavias and today's Russia. They also provided for expeditons in those regions as well as translators and a recognised currency to trade with and compare against.
    But then Haitabu was raided twice and a few years later, actually might've been half a century, the Hanse was established just about 100km south.
    And the Hanse again used Platt as their main trading language, and that is again, at least according to some theories, the main reason why lower german and many of the trading partners, like the Scandinavias or Britan share so many words.
    Like Labskaus. It's Labskaus in nothern Germany and Scous in Liverpool, GB. They even call the people of Liverpool Scous.
    But than again, that might've been just something that came along after the Hanse. But funny nontheless 😃

    Oh - finally a video about NORTH Germany! I was born in Schleswig-Holstein, but have lived in beautiful Lower Saxony since I was 3 years old. It's true that we North Germans are people of few words - but IF we say something, then it comes from the heart ^^ apart from our really beautiful coasts and the cute islands, there is a lot more to discover in terms of landscape: e.g. the "Lüneburger Heide" (heathland of Lüneburg) with its colorful splendor! Greetings from Lower Saxony - the most beautiful federal state in Germany ^^

    The "Northern" character and humour is pretty well described in a German TV series called "Neues aus Büttenwarder" (News from Büttenwarder) which you MUST watch if you get the opportunity. It´s lot f fun. But I don´t know if there are English subtitles.

    10:00 But the bottle is at least from Bremen, a Haake-Beck, which is since 1981 a subsidiary of Beck's (which is also from Bremen and since 2002 a subsidiary of Belgian InBev company which swallowed also Anheuser-Busch in 2008 and renamed itself Anheuser-Busch InBev), but brews mostly for the regional market. There are also a few smaller and a few young craft breweries in Bremen.
    12:35 Between 1768 and 1780 East Frisia had even a "tea war" - in 1744 Prussia gained East Frisia by claiming inheritance and occupied it to secure that claim. Frederick II of Prussia then founded first the Royal Prussian Asiatic Company in Emden to Canton and China, but it failed in the end due to having only 4 ships and due to the outbreak of Seven Years' War (including the occupation of Emden by French Troops). Afterwards Frederick tried to ban tea imports and instructed the Frisians to drink beer instead (which was also relatively germ-free), but the Frisians preferred to smuggle tea and to argue with the Prussian authorities, until Frederick backed down in 1780.

    Also I really appreciate that you like the architecture and the beautiful countryside. It reminds me of how good we have it here, things I usually take for granted.

    As a southern German we view our northern brethren as relaxed, laid back and open. Plus Platt just sounds so friendly and relaxed. Not to mention the most legendary German comedian is from Eastern Frisia. And you can hear 'Moin' throughout Germany.

    For your edification: In North America the often heard curse "sack of sh*t" has its origins in the northern German expression "Schietbüdel". I guess when German immigrants used it to describe Immigration officials, people wanted to know the English equivalent, heard it, liked it and it was absorbed into everyday use in the US and Canada. 😄

    1:39 Why are we happy up here?
    We take everything with a healthy dose of tongue-in-cheek humor. Including the Schietwetter.😂 And yes, the origin of that four letter word definitely is from the Plattdeutsch of five centuries ago - for both English and German. It was the most spoken language at the time for all countries with borders on the coasts of the North and the Baltic Sea. The Hanseatic League brought it along with their free trade empire. Including to England. Often the modern Amish and Mennonites still speak a variant of Platt even today.
    Edit: yepp, Hamburg has more bridges than Venice and Berlin combined: over 2500 bridges total in Hamburg, with Venice at around 400 being way behind. Only New York boasts more bridges in the world at around 2900. However NYC is about three times larger both in population and size. However, there were some accounts of Hamburg having well over 4000 bridges if small pedestrian bridges were included as well. So the counts vary quite a bit. Safe to say no matter the count Hamburg easily beats Venice in number of bridges.
    Edit 2: the Wattenmeer, the huge mudflats need a bit more focus. They are a shallow coastal mudbank that falls almost completely dry during low tide, but gets flooded by up to three to five meters of water during high tide. During the low tide you can start a hike through the mudflats from one of several islands to its neighboring islands with a local guide. But don't do this alone without a guide. While it is very enticing to try it, we get several lost tourists each year who get caught out by the returning tide. In most cases they get rescued by the DLRG or coast guard. But some get tragically dragged out to sea. And no, you have NO chance whatsoever of trying to swim against those currents. The worst riptides along the American coasts are mild against what happens there twice a day. So as fun (and dirty) as these Wattwanderungen/mud flat hikes are with a good guide, they are not to be taken lightly.
    Oh, and in case you catch some good weather, bring along some high SPF sun screen that is water insoluble. Don't forget to take good care of the tops of your feet. You'll be slogging through ankle deep water for the majority of your hike. It's clear enough to function like a lense. I had a magnificent sun burn on the top of my feet the first time I did this. When I arrived at the neighboring island I couldn't slip on my shoes I had carried in my Rucksack as my feet were too sunburned. I couldn't take the pressure of the shoes on my feet's top side. 😂😂

      Remarque to edit 2: In germany not the coast guard is in charge to rescue people in sea distress but the
      DGzRS (Deutsche Gesellschaft zur Rettung Schiffbrüchiger) is with sovereign task; since 1865.
      In 2007 "Die Seenotretter" was added to "DGzRS"
      The DLRG (Deutsche Lebens-Rettungs-Gesellschaft) works at beaches primarily and is the biggest water rescue Organisation on voluntarily base since 1913.
      Both, "DLRG" and "DGzRS - Die Seenotretter" are none governement organiszation not financed by the german government.

    6:00 Some people have an easier time learning languages, some less so but I mainly blame the way we teach languages in school (all around the world).
    I took 4 foreign languages in school and my first Spanish teacher (the best teacher I ever had) was the only one doing it right.
    None of us spoke a lick of Spanish, obviously, but he just spoke nothing but Spanish and we learnt very quickly (essentially by immersion, at least a bit, as it should be).
    And don't get me started on how we teach Latin...
    I don't care what people need it for, you need to speak it to learn it quickly and properly, end of story.
    Sorry for the little rant but it just baffles me that we can't just do it properly instead of wasting our time 😅

    Bavarians, especially the ones from the capital Munich, are known for being grumpy (grantig) and they are swearing all the time, hence called "Grantler". Berliners are complaining most of the time and make rude remarks. They think it is funny but the rest of the country feels insulted. But do not mistake them. A car mechanic may say something like "If your car was a horse I would shoot it" when you have a serious breakdown, but then he will do his best to get it fixed. In some parts of the north, though, the prejudice against locals being morose is wrong. While you were trying to get your car fixed they will be gathering around you and discuss how you could do it better. And then someone will indeed say nothing, push you aside and repair it.
