In Denmark, this parties are name with only the first letters for some names, or something similar? The parliament there is also similarly fragmented to that in the Netherlands.

"Safest region of the country" according to themselves (and to antivaxxers). 

My admittedly tiny sample at least made it feel like the safest and nicest place :d 

 

Milan....I was very glad to be out of there, Bologna almost felt even worse, and I was also happy to leave Trento behind after barely a day there :p  Livigno didn't feel bad like that, the issue there is that Livigno people seem to believe the world outside of Livigno doesn't really exist.

 

Every time I have been in South Tyrol though, it always just felt...lovely, cozy, nice, friendly, and so on.

 

But obviously that is all a matter of opinion. Besides that I mostly went on statistics and Alto Adige generally scoring very high in things like quality of life and low crime rates :p

After all, Trento is the capital of Alto Adige... For me personally Trento is nicer places than Bolzano, but I haven't been there for many years, so maybe I would have a different opinion now.

Not really. Every single party just have an identification letter. Doesn't really mean that much except for identification on different lists and the order on the ballots. Only M and V really have anything to do with the name of the party.

 

But yeah. It has become rather fragmentated. Doesn't help making the new government

It is interesting how it just feels 100% different than all of the rest :p

 

We had to go to a doctor in Bolzano and one in Trento, so that particular time we weren't there for very long, but driving back north after the visit in Trento felt like a relief, somehow :p 

 

Same when driving back from Milan/Bergamo (where I said Bologna earlier, I meant Bergamo) towards Tramin/Termeno, despite certainly not living there it kind of felt like driving towards home :d

Were there times when a party had an absolute majority in your country?
