    Eddie Fenech Adami's 'Tal-Barrani' meeting (1986) is emblematic of Malta's division along what appears to be a Labour south and a Nationalist north. Understanding how these voters became tied to the two parties, and their migration patterns across the island, is key to understanding these local political allegiances.

    Good Job, well structured video, very informative and could not find any political bias. Keep it up, and do give us more.

    Fascinating that such a small country can still have the same geographical divisions as bigger ones.

    So fascinating, always wondered how and why such a strong divide came to be on such a tiny island, but never found enough information online regarding this. Props to you guys, keep up the excellent work!

    This a *very intrigueimg* and *informative* video BUT whar I dare asked is what did any of these poliical parties do about the (Italian) pollution in the Maltese language?

      I presume you're talking how Maltese is mixing with other languages. Firstly, in the video you could see how the North was popular amongst more affluent people, and mostly British. This was like that for many years, so it was the same with the French, Romans (who spoke Latin) and practically most other wealthy people living there. The Maltese who lived there had good connections with these foreign people, and spoke more English and Italian than Maltese. It was also very evident in WW2 when Maltese was considered a "poor, dirty" language. Though when everyone mixed up again, English, Italian and Maltese all merged.
