Normally we'd reply with "please don't do regional flamewar on HN" but this sounds so good-humored to me that I've canceled the (no doubt well-intentioned) downvotes instead.

There's an entire ditch between the French-speaking and German-speaking parts of Switzerland, filled with Röschti to keep the two apart. True story!
