I'm italian. Unfortunately a lot of italians tend to "hate" France for historical, political and sporty reason, ignoring the fact that all of these things have nothing to do with actual French people. Probably they've never been in France and never met a French, so its pretty sad that this common view is just based on stereotypes. Love you from Rome 🇮🇹 🇫🇷
My mum is French and my dad is Italian, so I am 50/50, I have double nationality and lived for years in both countries. I loved them both. The 2 best countries in the world💕 The only difference is that when I'm in Italy it is not rare that people ''make fun'' of me for being French, while when I'm in France people actually don't care or are even happy to know that I'm Italian.
@@mae5657 Maybe I did not express myself at best sorry (English is my 3rd language). What I wanted to say is that Italians often tend to 'look down on' French. It is not rare at all that Italians say 'French are snobby and dirty' for example. Italians say that French think to be better than everyone else (which of course it is a stereotype and not true. Like everywhere else you can find some good people and some bad people). They also ask me if I clean myself properly because I'm French and in France is not common to find bidet in toilets. And this is funny since I know that bidet are rather uncommon in many countries (Germany, UK, Denmark,..) but Italians mainly laugh about French being dirty and not using bidet. Italians also tell me many other negative comments (e.g. French food is disgusting, French is worse at football,..) I bet that the most hated country for Italians is France ahaha. On the other hand, French people actually don't care if I'm Italian or not and many of them are even happy/curious to know it and ask me about Italian food recipes, Italian songs, best place to visit in Italy in my opinion,....
@@bert422 Ho okay i understand better but there are a lot of clichés in what you are saying. I would say France and Italy are cousins but there is some kind of rivalry between both countries. Both are great and beautiful 😊
@@bert422 it might be because France is superior so Italian are jalous while French people are just happy to know Italy (which is also a good country of course)

Envy or not, Italy and France are the most complete country in the world, that s the Reason of our competition
I’m a random Italian guy who has been living in the UK since a decade. I have friends from all over the world and my best friend is Indian. However, over the years I discovered how similar French and Italian people are. We both love spending time with friends at dinner in front of a bottle of wine, we both like quality food and we also both like dressing decently in every occasion. Last but not least, we both like chatting about more sophisticated topics (art, politics and ideals, big problems, etc.). I love France!
I think, there is a lot in common (though; even as an Italian FOOTIE ("Soccer"/"Calcio"_ fan); I do not like dressing -up: too much/if @ all!! (I am "1/2 Indian" and LOVE_ ITALIAN_ "Soccer"="CALCIO!!").

You compared Paris to Rome. Not France to Italy. France is not neccessarly more expensive than Italy. Paris is. Many places in France are not expensive. Italian cheese is as good as the French, if not better. The weather... You compared Paris to Rome not France to Italy... Style and fashion: again you compared Paris to Rome, you completely forgot Milan. I agree about infrastructures, especially trains(even if there are big differences between northern Italy and southern Italy) . Trains in France are excellent and even cheaper than other excellent train services( England). Weird thing: Italy built its motorways BEFORE France and they were excellent at first: than a luck of maintenance and bad administration has brought to the present shitty situation.
been France 5 times and 10 times in Italy and I’ve been to many other cities than Paris and Rome.. Unfortunately I didn’t make a lot of video from my previous visits, only pictures
im shock a 3 star hotel in Europe is only 100 to 150 dollars. I travel in very poor cities in Asia and rooms can be 100 dollars per night. Is that really true??? 100 per night, I can go to Italy and not sleep in the park to save money.
You missed some points. Especially the fact that Italian trains are among the fastest in the world 350km\h. And the fashion point. Milan is recognized as the capital of the fashion in all the world. Major brands such as: Gucci, Dolce e Gabbana, Bottega veneta, Armani, Off white, Napijiri, Ray Ban, Fendi, Ferragamo, Bulgari and many more are Italian. And again, the price thing. You can’t compare prices in that way (for hotels). Hotels in Rome are cheaper than hotels in more beautiful places such as Capri or Ischia, for example. But overall I agree upon the fact that Italian and French people are all alike. And, with the rest of your comparison. Love France from Italy 🇮🇹
France and Italy are the most beautiful countries in the world. They are have amazing tourists places, food, culture, language, sport and fashion. The world is tasteless without France and Italy.

As an Italian we say “Only Paris is worth of Rome, and only Rome is worth of Paris” We argue a lot in many things, but it’s because deep down we are very similar (food, fashion, history and etc) french are our true brothers even more than Spain and Greece, in my opinion.
I'm Italian and I lived 1 year in France. Everyone told me that the mentality would have been very different but living there I found out that in reality it was extremely similar to mine and to my family's and friends' one (I'm from Venice by the way). I didn't find French people snobby at all. This is also why I'm always a bit astonished when some Italians are over negative about such a beautiful country like France. 🇮🇹♥️🇫🇷
Don’t worry. Only tourists visiting Paris say the French are rude. I’ve heard the same about Florence. Paris and Florence are over crowded with tourists so locals can be upset sometimes. But only tourists pretend they visited France or Italy having only spent a couple of days in Paris or Florence.
I'm one of those lucky people who has recently spent 1 year in Italy (Verona) and 1 year in France (Grenoble), as part of my University studies. Your list is very accurate. Italian people can become like a family to you, I have had a lot of support from my professors and friends. In France it's not that easy, people are more distanced, although not exactly rude, so the French stereotype is not always true. France is investing a lot more in science and infrastructure, but Italy is trying as well. I prefer Italian food and I think Italy is more beautiful. French people have a more opened mentality and seem to be less religious. In both countries their English sucks, I'm not sure where it sucks the most. However, with Italians I usually communicate in Italian, and I'm studying French recently to avoid speaking English in France. Italy always feels like home, I don't know why, maybe because I come from nearby Albania. In France I feel good and it's true that they value personal space and privacy, but you can make good friends there. One thing that they have in common is that in both countries you can talk about politics, you can openly be left-wing, right-wing, center, religious, atheist. In other European countries (e.g. Belgium and northern countries) people avoid these topics, which is kind of annoying. I must say I was really blessed for spending two good years in these countries. Hopefully, I might move to Paris this year (if NYC doesn't steal me first) and if I do, it's certain that I will visit Italy a lot of times. These countries are the heart of Europe and their languages are the most beautiful in the world.

the world calls Italy and France "twin sisters", because they are very similar. even if every now and then they quarrel over competition between the two countries, Italians and French also know how to be united.

Italy is a country I like a lot ! As a French who lives in the South of France, it’s just like I was at home. I visited, Florence, Pisa, Venise, Rome... And I loved it ! I will always remember, I was in Rome near the plaza with an obelisk and I was going to buy a baguette at a little Carrefour in Rome. When I get out and walked in the principal street of Rome, I was walking with my baguette in my hand and I was speaking French with my friend. An Italian guy approached me and said. “Ahaha the Baguette !” We laughed and then we left, but it will always stays at a memory for me !
I do feel blessed to be Italian and live in France for University! I get to know more and more the similitarities between my country and France and it is really fascinating
Visiting İtaly and see its cultural, historical places is my childhood dream..like both countries..but beside Azerbaijan, Italy is my favourite country..love you İtaliya..
As a northern Italian, I feel myself being quite similar to the French. I visited France a couple of times and it's marvelous. There is one thing I don't agree with at all, though, France has not better cheese than us, we're at the same (top) level. French cheese is great, and there are so many different kinds, but the same thing can be said about ours: just dropping a few names: taleggio, mozzarella di bufala, parmigiano reggiano, gorgonzola, bitto, pecorino. And those are the "commercial" ones, there is an army of artisan cheeses as well.
Like all the neighbors, we tend to compete and a little to tease each other, but in the end we love each other and recognize our special link of ancient familiarity. Greetings from Rome.
I think France is sister with all its neighbors, if you are in the North is a bit Flemish, in Lille, if you are in Strasbourg is a bit German, if you are in Nice is a bit Italian, if you are in Montpellier or Toulouse it is a bit catalan Spanish, if you are in Brittany is a bit Celtic, Biarritz a bit Basque. Briefly, France has been influenced by all its neighbors. And conversely, France has influenced its neighbors.
@m n No it was actually stolen. Genova sold it, but Nice didn't agree. Also, France forced Nice to vote for the remaining, with a fake referendum, and subdued the population culturally in many ways. All the people had to choose between the option of changing their surnames or abandoning the city for example. Most of the population was replaced by French people
@m n If what you say was actually true, France didn't need a referendum to legitimate the annexation. But obviously what are you saying is pretty incorrect
@m n So to justify your ignorance about this argument we are taking this on personal? Now you are assuming that I'm a little nationalistic Italian with ancestors from Nice? Don't you find all of this kind of pathetic dude? I'm not saying that you are an idiot French that didn't finish primary school, just because you can't discern between a form of oppression over a population and a legitimate trade between two entities. Do you know the trade of slaves, which is the most similar trade, in this case, was not kind of legitimate and accepted in Europe during the 19th century? I should consider the fact that "stolen" it's not the most appropriate word, indeed it was taken by force. And, before you repeat that Genova gave it, it's not Genova the matter, but the inhabitants of Nice and their rights to preserve their culture at least... not even their nationality, but their culture, can you understand this? The concept of culture?
i'm spanish and i prefer italy without any doubt: Italy wins: friendly people (french were mean and very rude to me), climate, prices, landmarks (italy regions are very different: i.e. Lombardia, Tuscany, Campania, Sicily, Sardinia), food (french food is so greasy) France wins: infrastructure (even if more expensive), future view Equals: art and culture

As a Northern Italian who has a house on the border betwen the Italian and the French Riviera I feel very similar to French people. Italians can be reserved, too, even if the stereotype is that we are all loud extroverts, this is actually not so true in Northern Italy .

Italian decent fron Celts and Roman's Southerners decent Viking and Greek Goths some Jewish influence as well because Sicily was vacant piece of land at time And Italy didnt not want it So many of Northerners especially from Scandinavian country Vikings wanted Sicily because of warm Climate and fertile land they where first to conquer it and they ruled for many decades It later became part of Italy but still Southerners are not real Italians only by name because they live there

@COSTANTINO SAMUELE Alla maggior parte dei francesi non interessa il 2006 perché la Francia purtroppo non è un paese del calcio perché è profondamente un paese di "intellettuali", letterati, metafisici che disprezzano la carne, il materiale quindi l'industria debole ( rispetto ai tedeschi e agli inglesi) in questo paese, l'odio per il denaro e il disprezzo verso gli atleti, gli sportivi che si guadagnano da vivere comodamente in particolare i calciatori che alla fine affittano i loro corpi, il loro pulpito per guadagnarsi da vivere come operaio le prende in affitto le braccia o una prostituta le affitta la fica, così pensano quegli intellettuali di merda arroganti. Ciò riflette un profondo disprezzo per la classe e un odio per il nuovo arrivato che minaccia il posto del benestante, aristo-borghese già stabilito, cauto e riluttante al cambiamento, all'azione, quindi una cultura molto debole dell'imprenditorialità e innovazione in questo paese con la mentalità di un antiquario, un custode di musei disperato di conservare, mantenere le cose che hanno funzionato ed erano nobili in passato con un'avversione al cambiamento, al movimento, all'azione, corpo, materia che è solo movimento.

Trains in Italy are no longer out of schedule. This is an old stereotype which was valid 20 years ago or so. The majority of Italian trains (both high speed trains or regional) is punctual. The railway system works almost perfectly and it's also inexpensive compared to other European railways. I travelled by train across all of the 20 regions of Italy. In the south the railway system is outdated but this is another story. The timetable is reliable.
I have to add- my last visit to Italy was last summer- south of Italy and islands and I though the trains and traffic, in general, will be a mess, but no/ everything was very punctual. Chaotic (but just becAuse i don’t speak italian), but very accurate. That was probably the biggest surprise from the trip
i often come to northern italy and NEVER had even one issue with schedule. and this is cheap. don't know from where this rumor exists but this is not true.

In principle, your video is correct. In principle though, as there’s a number of things I don’t necessarily agree with. 1. Infrastructure: it largely depends on the area of the country you consider - namely in northern Italy it can be extremely good and also don’t forget that Italy has built and it’s already currently building a certain amount of high speed railway lines and I believe it’s one of the very top in the world on this. 2. People - I don’t necessarily agree with the fact that French seem to be colder and more reserved than Italians. Whilst it’s true that Italians in general might seem more welcoming, this is also highly stereotypical as in northern Italy people tend to be immensely reserved (at times I feel it ways more than certain areas of France) and also very individualistic and enjoying their private lives/paces. 3. GDP - Whilst I don’t necessarily agree with this specific measure to quantify the wealth of a country and its general quality of life, let us not forget that there are regions in Italy (for example Lombardy, Veneto, Emilia-Romagna, Trentino-Alto Adige or Tuscany) which have a higher GDP that many other European countries, including French regions. 4. Climate - Once again it depends on the area you consider. Whilst it’s true that France is generally more rainy and colder, you’re only considering Paris compared to Rome. I find Milan, the city I come from, to be at times colder than Paris. I generally felt colder in Milan than Paris, when I traveled there. The video is in itself relatively realistic. However I had the feeling throughout that the comparison was mainly between Rome and Paris, rather than Italy and France. Certain things were true, however others I believe were still quite stereotypical. I met a lot of French people and I don’t find them colder than us Italians at all. Actually I found them pretty friendly. Whereas it’s definitely not the case that all us Italians are extremely welcoming as it largely depends on where you come from, which is something the video didn’t talk about and regional differences, at least in Italy, are still very present. Other than that, I still believe that France is the closest culture you can get to Italy in Europe. Spain also, but the refinement of Italian and French cultures HAVE NO COMPARISON in the whole world. Viva l’Italia and vive la France! 🇮🇹🇫🇷
totally agree! There are more differences between the Italian regions than between Italy and France ... but in the end this is also what makes Italy wonderful!
@Antoine B de M I believe that Parisian sky can get quite grey and, as you pointed out, oppressive. But I don’t think Milan’s is any better. Trust me when I tell you that days can pass in Milan, especially in autumn and winter, without seeing the sun. At all. And let’s not even mention the fog, which in the Po Valley is still very present. The point is that it lacks of sense to compare just 2 cities of a country, pretending that they reflect and incorporate the whole country’s identity. Especially in the case of large and diverse Nations like Italy and France. Having said this, France still remains the closest country you can get to Italy and viceversa. Perhaps not all of it. But I can assure that, if you speak with a Lombard or a Piedmontese person, you’d find very few, almost 0 differences (other than the language itself) than if you spoke with a Parisian.
Italy is not just pizza, pasta, etc. Italy is history and mother of Europe, it has had many important historical figures such as Machiavelli, Dante, Galileo Galilei, Leonardo da Vinci etc. The only problem in my country is the mafia and the government otherwise it would be the best country in the world.

In Torino (north-west Italy) people likes french people, we are likes cousin and our city Is called "the Little Paris". My parents study French at school when they were children, not english. And the North East of Italy has more things in common with German people. Italy borders with 4 nation remember this. The southwest of french as a lot in common with Spain, even food it's a wonderful mix of traditions.
Ma tu ti senti simile a quelli lì... Io sono di Torino e non mi sento come loro. Tutto ciò ammesso che esistono ancora i francesi... Non c'è un bianco nemmeno a cercarlo.
I'm definitely french (and not proud of it, I don't care).. but Italy is probably the closest country in my mind. Both are not cousins as you say but brothers (or sisters). I feel home every time I go there (culture, art, language, food, mentality). In fact... last time I went to Pompei (not for the first time). One house has just opened after some wonderful frescoes got restored. I spent half an hour to look at them, crying. A watchman just approached and asked me "are you french ?" (in italian, I speak the language a little) I answered, "yes"... And he added... "of course you're french, only french people have the same passion as we have..."
wow..🥺❤️ i’m passionate about history too and i’m italian, i also studied latin ( i can translate little texts) because latin is studied by every italian in highschool
I live in Italy but I am half Italian and half french. I love the way you explain the differences, and yes, generally are correct, very nice work for a person that is not from our part of Europe
It's really great what you do, you show the differences and at the same time the similarities in a really positive way. More youtubers should be like you. -from a french belgian
A basic difference between Italy and France (and between Italy and nearly every other country in Europe) is that France has been a unified nation many centuries whereas Italy for most of its history (even during antiquity) was a nation of cities and regions. Rome, Turin, Naples, Sicily, Tuscany, Venice, Milan, Genoa, Sardinia, etc, had their own history distinct from each other and most of the rest of Italy. Quite a few towns which are now small or provincial once were for a while capital cities: Sienna, Pisa, Cosenza, Ravenna, Ancona, Amalfi, Lucca, Urbino (I believe there are others). Poland, France, England, Denmark, Sweden and so on have one main city (the capital), whereas as others have two, such as Portugal, Russia. The county whose history is similar to Italy's would be Germany, having been unified from many smaller states in the mid to late 1800s.
I'm italian, and sadly it's true, most of the italians hate other countries like France or Germany for trivial reasons like "France stole the Mona Lisa", when in reality they just bought it ;-;
@Giorgio Royaume I'm French and everybody know it was painted in Italy and gifted to our king tbh, I hope the mentalities will change (even if there's a lot of Italians liking France, Especially in Toscana and the north). Imparando l'italiano, lunga vita all'Italia e alla Francia 🇫🇷❤️🇮🇹
@@makreacts8045 It probably depend where, Parisians aren't really nice in general lol. And people in Toscana are really nice! I went there maybe 4 times when I was young and always managed to make friends even if we didn't speak the same language and I was sometimes 3 or 4 years younger but they didn't care, I was like the young brother :)
I am Italian and I have been living in France for 4 months now. I want to say something about being rude: I have not yet met a single French person who has not helped me when needed
I'm French and gee do I love Italy ! Great people, the friendliest people I have ever met , and the food ! The food products are top quality no matter where you shop ! Beautiful country, great weather . And they also beat us in fashion , shoes , even wine !

The only difference is that when I'm in Italy it is not rare that people ''make fun'' of me for being French, while when I'm in France people actually don't care or are even happy to know that I'm Italian.
Interesting but why do italians make fun of you for being french ?
@@mae5657 Maybe I did not express myself at best sorry (English is my 3rd language). What I wanted to say is that Italians often tend to 'look down on' French. It is not rare at all that Italians say 'French are snobby and dirty' for example. Italians say that French think to be better than everyone else (which of course it is a stereotype and not true. Like everywhere else you can find some good people and some bad people).
They also ask me if I clean myself properly because I'm French and in France is not common to find bidet in toilets. And this is funny since I know that bidet are rather uncommon in many countries (Germany, UK, Denmark,..) but Italians mainly laugh about French being dirty and not using bidet.
Italians also tell me many other negative comments (e.g. French food is disgusting, French is worse at football,..)
I bet that the most hated country for Italians is France ahaha.
On the other hand, French people actually don't care if I'm Italian or not and many of them are even happy/curious to know it and ask me about Italian food recipes, Italian songs, best place to visit in Italy in my opinion,....

I’m a random Italian guy who has been living in the UK since a decade. I have friends from all over the world and my best friend is Indian. However, over the years I discovered how similar French and Italian people are. We both love spending time with friends at dinner in front of a bottle of wine, we both like quality food and we also both like dressing decently in every occasion. Last but not least, we both like chatting about more sophisticated topics (art, politics and ideals, big problems, etc.). I love France!

You compared Paris to Rome. Not France to Italy. France is not neccessarly more expensive than Italy. Paris is. Many places in France are not expensive.
Italian cheese is as good as the French, if not better.
The weather... You compared Paris to Rome not France to Italy...
Style and fashion: again you compared Paris to Rome, you completely forgot Milan.
I agree about infrastructures, especially trains(even if there are big differences between northern Italy and southern Italy) . Trains in France are excellent and even cheaper than other excellent train services( England). Weird thing: Italy built its motorways BEFORE France and they were excellent at first: than a luck of maintenance and bad administration has brought to the present shitty situation.
Excellent train service in England? Are you kidding?
been France 5 times and 10 times in Italy and I’ve been to many other cities than Paris and Rome.. Unfortunately I didn’t make a lot of video from my previous visits, only pictures
I agree. It seems you compared only the capitals and not the whole countries.
im shock a 3 star hotel in Europe is only 100 to 150 dollars. I travel in very poor cities in Asia and rooms can be 100 dollars per night. Is that really true??? 100 per night, I can go to Italy and not sleep in the park to save money.
You missed some points. Especially the fact that Italian trains are among the fastest in the world 350km\h. And the fashion point. Milan is recognized as the capital of the fashion in all the world. Major brands such as: Gucci, Dolce e Gabbana, Bottega veneta, Armani, Off white, Napijiri, Ray Ban, Fendi, Ferragamo, Bulgari and many more are Italian. And again, the price thing. You can’t compare prices in that way (for hotels). Hotels in Rome are cheaper than hotels in more beautiful places such as Capri or Ischia, for example. But overall I agree upon the fact that Italian and French people are all alike. And, with the rest of your comparison. Love France from Italy 🇮🇹

Venice is really my favourite place in Italy. It is unique. Last time I was there was exactly one year ago, just at the beginning of the pandemic.
Don’t worry. Only tourists visiting Paris say the French are rude. I’ve heard the same about Florence. Paris and Florence are over crowded with tourists so locals can be upset sometimes. But only tourists pretend they visited France or Italy having only spent a couple of days in Paris or Florence.

I'm one of those lucky people who has recently spent 1 year in Italy (Verona) and 1 year in France (Grenoble), as part of my University studies. Your list is very accurate. Italian people can become like a family to you, I have had a lot of support from my professors and friends. In France it's not that easy, people are more distanced, although not exactly rude, so the French stereotype is not always true. France is investing a lot more in science and infrastructure, but Italy is trying as well. I prefer Italian food and I think Italy is more beautiful. French people have a more opened mentality and seem to be less religious. In both countries their English sucks, I'm not sure where it sucks the most. However, with Italians I usually communicate in Italian, and I'm studying French recently to avoid speaking English in France. Italy always feels like home, I don't know why, maybe because I come from nearby Albania. In France I feel good and it's true that they value personal space and privacy, but you can make good friends there. One thing that they have in common is that in both countries you can talk about politics, you can openly be left-wing, right-wing, center, religious, atheist. In other European countries (e.g. Belgium and northern countries) people avoid these topics, which is kind of annoying.
I must say I was really blessed for spending two good years in these countries. Hopefully, I might move to Paris this year (if NYC doesn't steal me first) and if I do, it's certain that I will visit Italy a lot of times. These countries are the heart of Europe and their languages are the most beautiful in the world.

As a French who lives in the South of France, it’s just like I was at home.
I visited, Florence, Pisa, Venise, Rome...
And I loved it !
I will always remember, I was in Rome near the plaza with an obelisk and I was going to buy a baguette at a little Carrefour in Rome.
When I get out and walked in the principal street of Rome, I was walking with my baguette in my hand and I was speaking French with my friend.
An Italian guy approached me and said.
“Ahaha the Baguette !”
We laughed and then we left, but it will always stays at a memory for me !

You're welcome In Italy.
As a northern Italian, I feel myself being quite similar to the French. I visited France a couple of times and it's marvelous. There is one thing I don't agree with at all, though, France has not better cheese than us, we're at the same (top) level. French cheese is great, and there are so many different kinds, but the same thing can be said about ours: just dropping a few names: taleggio, mozzarella di bufala, parmigiano reggiano, gorgonzola, bitto, pecorino. And those are the "commercial" ones, there is an army of artisan cheeses as well.
Pecorino Sardo is my favorite ❤️
I don't know much of italians cheese except the classic ones but i bet they are really good
true, both had great cheeses, impossible to tell which one is better. stupid comparison
@@nv2605 Pecorino sardo is a good reason to stay alive. Pecorino sardo saved me by depression 6 years ago.
northern italians are also gaulish as the french, maybe that it's the reason
Like all the neighbors, we tend to compete and a little to tease each other, but in the end we love each other and recognize our special link of ancient familiarity. Greetings from Rome.
I think France is sister with all its neighbors, if you are in the North is a bit Flemish, in Lille, if you are in Strasbourg is a bit German, if you are in Nice is a bit Italian, if you are in Montpellier or Toulouse it is a bit catalan Spanish, if you are in Brittany is a bit Celtic, Biarritz a bit Basque.
Briefly, France has been influenced by all its neighbors. And conversely, France has influenced its neighbors.
Nice was actually Italian indeed. It's a stolen city
@m n Ok, but Nice was actually Italian until 1862 and was forced to become French. Most of the inhabitants emigrated to Italy, in order to avoid this
@m n No it was actually stolen. Genova sold it, but Nice didn't agree. Also, France forced Nice to vote for the remaining, with a fake referendum, and subdued the population culturally in many ways. All the people had to choose between the option of changing their surnames or abandoning the city for example. Most of the population was replaced by French people
@m n If what you say was actually true, France didn't need a referendum to legitimate the annexation. But obviously what are you saying is pretty incorrect
@m n So to justify your ignorance about this argument we are taking this on personal? Now you are assuming that I'm a little nationalistic Italian with ancestors from Nice? Don't you find all of this kind of pathetic dude? I'm not saying that you are an idiot French that didn't finish primary school, just because you can't discern between a form of oppression over a population and a legitimate trade between two entities. Do you know the trade of slaves, which is the most similar trade, in this case, was not kind of legitimate and accepted in Europe during the 19th century? I should consider the fact that "stolen" it's not the most appropriate word, indeed it was taken by force. And, before you repeat that Genova gave it, it's not Genova the matter, but the inhabitants of Nice and their rights to preserve their culture at least... not even their nationality, but their culture, can you understand this? The concept of culture?
i'm spanish and i prefer italy without any doubt:
Italy wins: friendly people (french were mean and very rude to me), climate, prices, landmarks (italy regions are very different: i.e. Lombardia, Tuscany, Campania, Sicily, Sardinia), food (french food is so greasy)
France wins: infrastructure (even if more expensive), future view
Equals: art and culture
Are you joking ? The italian food = pizza, pasta and tiramisu. This is a greasy food this 😭
And the landmarks also, you cant compare Bretagne with Paris with South of France with Center of France. Are you visited one day our country ?

@COSTANTINO SAMUELE Alla maggior parte dei francesi non interessa il 2006 perché la Francia purtroppo non è un paese del calcio perché è profondamente un paese di "intellettuali", letterati, metafisici che disprezzano la carne, il materiale quindi l'industria debole ( rispetto ai tedeschi e agli inglesi) in questo paese, l'odio per il denaro e il disprezzo verso gli atleti, gli sportivi che si guadagnano da vivere comodamente in particolare i calciatori che alla fine affittano i loro corpi, il loro pulpito per guadagnarsi da vivere come operaio le prende in affitto le braccia o una prostituta le affitta la fica, così pensano quegli intellettuali di merda arroganti. Ciò riflette un profondo disprezzo per la classe e un odio per il nuovo arrivato che minaccia il posto del benestante, aristo-borghese già stabilito, cauto e riluttante al cambiamento, all'azione, quindi una cultura molto debole dell'imprenditorialità e innovazione in questo paese con la mentalità di un antiquario, un custode di musei disperato di conservare, mantenere le cose che hanno funzionato ed erano nobili in passato con un'avversione al cambiamento, al movimento, all'azione, corpo, materia che è solo movimento.

Souvent les discussions entre un français et un italien ont pour object le confronte entre les deux pays.

Trains in Italy are no longer out of schedule. This is an old stereotype which was valid 20 years ago or so. The majority of Italian trains (both high speed trains or regional) is punctual. The railway system works almost perfectly and it's also inexpensive compared to other European railways. I travelled by train across all of the 20 regions of Italy. In the south the railway system is outdated but this is another story. The timetable is reliable.
I'd agree with you. Probably we both live in the north though 😂
I have to add- my last visit to Italy was last summer- south of Italy and islands and I though the trains and traffic, in general, will be a mess, but no/ everything was very punctual. Chaotic (but just becAuse i don’t speak italian), but very accurate. That was probably the biggest surprise from the trip
i often come to northern italy and NEVER had even one issue with schedule. and this is cheap. don't know from where this rumor exists but this is not true.
Stronzata totale
Mah, per andare in università a milano dalla provincia di Monza sono più le volte che trovo ritardi che quelle in cui i treni sono puntuali. Molto spesso il viaggio dura il doppio per i ritardi

CAN YAMAN AND OUR DILETTA LEOTTA😍
In principle, your video is correct. In principle though, as there’s a number of things I don’t necessarily agree with.
1. Infrastructure: it largely depends on the area of the country you consider - namely in northern Italy it can be extremely good and also don’t forget that Italy has built and it’s already currently building a certain amount of high speed railway lines and I believe it’s one of the very top in the world on this.
2. People - I don’t necessarily agree with the fact that French seem to be colder and more reserved than Italians. Whilst it’s true that Italians in general might seem more welcoming, this is also highly stereotypical as in northern Italy people tend to be immensely reserved (at times I feel it ways more than certain areas of France) and also very individualistic and enjoying their private lives/paces.
3. GDP - Whilst I don’t necessarily agree with this specific measure to quantify the wealth of a country and its general quality of life, let us not forget that there are regions in Italy (for example Lombardy, Veneto, Emilia-Romagna, Trentino-Alto Adige or Tuscany) which have a higher GDP that many other European countries, including French regions.
4. Climate - Once again it depends on the area you consider. Whilst it’s true that France is generally more rainy and colder, you’re only considering Paris compared to Rome. I find Milan, the city I come from, to be at times colder than Paris. I generally felt colder in Milan than Paris, when I traveled there.
The video is in itself relatively realistic. However I had the feeling throughout that the comparison was mainly between Rome and Paris, rather than Italy and France. Certain things were true, however others I believe were still quite stereotypical. I met a lot of French people and I don’t find them colder than us Italians at all. Actually I found them pretty friendly. Whereas it’s definitely not the case that all us Italians are extremely welcoming as it largely depends on where you come from, which is something the video didn’t talk about and regional differences, at least in Italy, are still very present.
Other than that, I still believe that France is the closest culture you can get to Italy in Europe. Spain also, but the refinement of Italian and French cultures HAVE NO COMPARISON in the whole world.
Viva l’Italia and vive la France! 🇮🇹🇫🇷
I'm from Lombardy too and I highly agree: the video seems more like South Italy vs South France+Paris.
totally agree! There are more differences between the Italian regions than between Italy and France ... but in the end this is also what makes Italy wonderful!
@Antoine B de M I believe that Parisian sky can get quite grey and, as you pointed out, oppressive. But I don’t think Milan’s is any better. Trust me when I tell you that days can pass in Milan, especially in autumn and winter, without seeing the sun. At all. And let’s not even mention the fog, which in the Po Valley is still very present.
The point is that it lacks of sense to compare just 2 cities of a country, pretending that they reflect and incorporate the whole country’s identity. Especially in the case of large and diverse Nations like Italy and France.
Having said this, France still remains the closest country you can get to Italy and viceversa. Perhaps not all of it. But I can assure that, if you speak with a Lombard or a Piedmontese person, you’d find very few, almost 0 differences (other than the language itself) than if you spoke with a Parisian.
la tua descrizione e analisi non fa una piega, bravissima almeno per la parte dell'Italia
Love you France🇫🇷
Greetings from Italy!
Italy is not just pizza, pasta, etc. Italy is history and mother of Europe, it has had many important historical figures such as Machiavelli, Dante, Galileo Galilei, Leonardo da Vinci etc. The only problem in my country is the mafia and the government otherwise it would be the best country in the world.
W Italy🇮🇹

@@giuseppecorongiu3750 un altro* non si mette l'apostrofo perché il sostantivo è maschile. Fosse stato femminile allora sì. Poi: cosa intendi dire?
Grazie di avere corretto la mia sgrammaticatura .Ti scrivo in italiano per il motivo che capirai.Io non credo che i problemi dell' Italia siano la mafia e le altre associazioni criminali.Comunque i panni sporchi si lavano in famiglia e non si espongono al balcone se non dopo averli puliti.
@@giuseppecorongiu3750 i problemi dell'Italia sono la mafia e il governo, purtroppo siamo governati da incapaci. Ma sei italiano? Oppure vieni da un altro Paese?
I politici li eleggiamo noi.Comunque a proposito della mafia ed altresimili organizzazioni il problema è che non riusciamo a sconfiggere.Perche? I o penso che ci difetti il senso dello stato ,il senso del bene comune, la conoscenza degli interessi nazionali che non cambiano se al governo ci sia la destra o la sinistra(vedi L ibia).Noi italiani(Sono italiano)votiamo con lo spirito del tifoso di calcio .Votiamo per questo perché dice che è contro quello.Secondo me bisogna votare guardando al valore della persona e alla sua storia.
Love both from Romania! 😊 👌
In Torino (north-west Italy) people likes french people, we are likes cousin and our city Is called "the Little Paris". My parents study French at school when they were children, not english. And the North East of Italy has more things in common with German people. Italy borders with 4 nation remember this. The southwest of french as a lot in common with Spain, even food it's a wonderful mix of traditions.
Vero
Yeah but Paris is perhaps the most besutiful city in the world and torino isn't
@@innosanto One of the best but not the best...
Ma tu ti senti simile a quelli lì... Io sono di Torino e non mi sento come loro. Tutto ciò ammesso che esistono ancora i francesi... Non c'è un bianco nemmeno a cercarlo.

The romance "Triumvirato" 🇫🇷🔗🇮🇹🔗🇪🇦
I'm definitely french (and not proud of it, I don't care).. but Italy is probably the closest country in my mind. Both are not cousins as you say but brothers (or sisters). I feel home every time I go there (culture, art, language, food, mentality). In fact... last time I went to Pompei (not for the first time). One house has just opened after some wonderful frescoes got restored. I spent half an hour to look at them, crying. A watchman just approached and asked me "are you french ?" (in italian, I speak the language a little) I answered, "yes"... And he added... "of course you're french, only french people have the same passion as we have..."
wow..🥺❤️ i’m passionate about history too and i’m italian, i also studied latin ( i can translate little texts) because latin is studied by every italian in highschool
I live in Italy but I am half Italian and half french. I love the way you explain the differences, and yes, generally are correct, very nice work for a person that is not from our part of Europe
As an Italian, I can’t say that most of Italians love France, especially older people
It's really great what you do, you show the differences and at the same time the similarities in a really positive way. More youtubers should be like you.
-from a french belgian
A basic difference between Italy and France (and between Italy and nearly every other country in Europe) is that France has been a unified nation many centuries whereas Italy for most of its history (even during antiquity) was a nation of cities and regions. Rome, Turin, Naples, Sicily, Tuscany, Venice, Milan, Genoa, Sardinia, etc, had their own history distinct from each other and most of the rest of Italy. Quite a few towns which are now small or provincial once were for a while capital cities: Sienna, Pisa, Cosenza, Ravenna, Ancona, Amalfi, Lucca, Urbino (I believe there are others).
Poland, France, England, Denmark, Sweden and so on have one main city (the capital), whereas as others have two, such as Portugal, Russia.
The county whose history is similar to Italy's would be Germany, having been unified from many smaller states in the mid to late 1800s.
I think your video is pretty accurate having lived in France and been to Italy many times. Both places are wonderful but different.
Nothing to say , im italian and i come two times a year to france ! I love france people , i love their food , and wine 🇮🇹 🇫🇷
As an Italian I would like to visit France , I wish this pandemic is gonna end
Ti accolgo a casa mia
I'm italian, and sadly it's true, most of the italians hate other countries like France or Germany for trivial reasons like "France stole the Mona Lisa", when in reality they just bought it ;-;
@Giorgio Royaume I'm French and everybody know it was painted in Italy and gifted to our king tbh, I hope the mentalities will change (even if there's a lot of Italians liking France, Especially in Toscana and the north). Imparando l'italiano, lunga vita all'Italia e alla Francia 🇫🇷❤️🇮🇹
@@dairop3220 🇮🇹❤🇨🇵
I found French people nicer than Italians
@@makreacts8045 100% you went to North Italy and never went to South,
@@makreacts8045 It probably depend where, Parisians aren't really nice in general lol. And people in Toscana are really nice! I went there maybe 4 times when I was young and always managed to make friends even if we didn't speak the same language and I was sometimes 3 or 4 years younger but they didn't care, I was like the young brother :)
I am Italian and I have been living in France for 4 months now. I want to say something about being rude: I have not yet met a single French person who has not helped me when needed
I'm French and gee do I love Italy ! Great people, the friendliest people I have ever met , and the food ! The food products are top quality no matter where you shop ! Beautiful country, great weather . And they also beat us in fashion , shoes , even wine !
I love them but they don't beat us in fashion at all. Maybe when it comes to shoes, and wine it's subjective...
@@warisdirie7976 🤗👋🏻 ciao da una ragazza italiana and yes in fashion we are on the same level but not on cars and shoes
@Roxxx It's simply not true. Paris is still far ahead...
@Roxxx what a childish answer... sorry if facts bother you...
@Roxxx ok you must be an uneducated teenager...
