The Tyrolean, or: Hands up French! In our anthropological and ethnological tour d'Autriche we do after the
Vorarlbergians now stop at the Tyrolese. But how many different types of Tyrolese are there? Probably the correct answer is about one million. But do not think that would not, despite all the differences and similarities. The Tyrolean, whether they are in North, South or East Tyrol live, have two things that connect them: a speech impediment and weapons. Then they are also very proud and if someone is an ex-Upper Austrian audacity in Parliament are ex-Oberösterreichertum to keep it under his nose, he can be lucky if he is not brought before a firing squad of the Tyrolean shooters and sent to the Holy Hofer in the sky. As you noted already: the Tyrol are a sensitive [Volckch] and it can be better kept harping on her language problem, no matter whether they are now provincial governor, or student union chairman. It is better not to have the Tyrolean enemies. Before you know it, waiting at the front door, a bearded thugs with muzzle loaders, or the local power supply is cut explosives technology. Behave in the Near Tyroleans good then, and still, they do not try as an Italian or a Frenchman to look and make no questions whose answers might cause onomatopoeic problems such as "How again the racists hot with the white Kapputzen?" Or "What do you call illegitimate offspring still ", words such as could [Kchuckchluckchsckchlan] and [Ckchuckchuckchsckchinder] you a fit of laughter and soon cause death. For Tyrolean may have heavy tongues, but quick hands and often are too large as Bärenpratzen. The reason why we are told about the Tyrolean so few jokes and that is that it do so painful can. If you so your eardrums and her [Ckchnackch] love be, they follow the old peasant wisdom. "Folded hands, Goschn hold"
If it were only speech impediment and arms that connect the Tyrol, you might as well just as well be Swiss. No, the Tyrolean have a glorious past of the busy-being and of the occupiers-the-life-to-hell-making behind them and are very proud of. In four battles in Innsbruck Bergisel they fought in the wars of liberation against Napoleon's troops, and eventually fell victim to just the Viennese diplomacy. The fact that you denigrate the national hero Andreas Hofer, Tyrolean as Taliban, because er Frauen das Tragen züchtiger Kleidung anraten ließ und mit besonders reaktionären Elementen in der Kirche auf gutem Fuß stand, wird vom offiziellen Tirol nicht gerne gesehen. Vielleicht wird die Verhöhnung der Landeshymne auch deshalb mit bis zu 2000 € Bußgeld bestraft. Die Androhung von Arrest musste nach allgemeinen Protesten zurückgenommen werden. Die Hymne, die Hofers physisches Ende in Mantua umschreibt, ist textlich mehrfach umstritten, verweist sie doch sowohl auf Deutschland, als auch auf den guten Kaiser Franz. Jeder, der sich dadurch in seinem österreichischen Nationalbewusstsein oder in seinem Republikanismus verletzt fühlt, steht in Tirol aber sowieso auf verlorenem Posten. Es ist das einzige Bundesland, in which the country's identity to the national consciousness still prevails.
That may have something to do with the fact that some parts of the Tyrol in the Italian-administered live south of the country and do there according to a political persuasions on German, Austrian or triplets minority. Since the prey Tyrolean there after the end of the First World War by the Italin as Ceteros "civilized", they were hoping the Association of Collective's Party along with propaganda mag "Dolomite" in the national unity as Christians for the return of the Messiah. As long as they get back from Rome your Steuereinnahemn them but the truth anyway alles relativ wurscht. Nur sagen würden sie das nie. Man spricht lieber vom Europa der Regionen und der Überflüssikeit der Nationalstaaten. Um ein bisschen an die Unterdrückung durch den italienischen Staat und insbesondere durch die Faschisten zu erinnern, trägt man hin und wieder Dornenkronen spazieren oder fährt auf Schutzmachtwallfahrt nach Wien. Das Sprengen von Strommasten und anderen Infrastruktureinrichtungen hat man mittlerweile aufgegeben, so wie die Italiener jetzt auch nicht mehr darauf bestehen, dass Grabsteine italienisiert werden oder Gefangene im Häfen zu Tode foltern. Man betont die positive Zusammenarbeit, wenn dann aber irgendwelche italinieschen Resorgimentofeierlichkeiten anstehen, geht man doch lieber auf Distanz, Finally - so says the captain of South Tyrol, the eternal DURNI - did so in 1919 they were not asked whether they want to join since. And that's why they do it even now. The Victory Monument in Bolzano is to protect him even better guarded and fenced. It is understood now, perhaps with the children in the Italian sandbox, but remains rather sit on the edge. It could well be Sicilian and Calabrian it.
too little has been said many flattering things about the Tyrolean. But because the author - even Tyrolean district - so much of his life is hanging and the following opinion did not even announced he can simply speak about Heinrich Heine:
"The Tyrolean are beautiful, serene, honest, brave, and of unfathomable mental limitations. They are a healthy human race, perhaps because they are too stupid to be sick can. " Heine
Such radical pamphleteering is without any foundation course and one should beware of him clueless to give of themselves because, as words, the Tyrolean are sensitive. They can not, for example singly occupied and then forget it. Without civil war, no one has convinced the Tyrol. Rudolf IV of Habsburg except, perhaps, called the donor, because it is a skill I never had the document forgery. Who managed the widowed Margaret Maultasch talk to the province of Tyrol. She received a pension and the fifth district of Vienna its name. Altogether there seems to Vienna to be the only ones that wrap the Tyrolean somehow. Even as they claimed they would support them against the French, have the Tyrolean them the simple thought. Under their hard shell so there is also a naive heart.
the Tyrol were also fixed and the Nazis is not only naive. The hoped-for national unity has brought them even Hitler. He has the South Tyrolean rather with Mussolini with the - the way Italians as zu bleiben oder als Deutsche zu gehen - beglückt und damit einen Keil durch die Minderheit getrieben. Sogar Osttirol hat man damals an Kärnten angeschlossen, ein kulturelles Manko, das die Osttiroler bis heute nicht ganz [loosgloosn] hat. Die höchste NSDAP-Mitgliederquote aller Bundesländer und ein Gauleiter Namens Hofer hinderte die Tiroler aber dann doch nicht daran am Ende Innsbruck in Eigenregie zu befreien und den Amerikanern zu übergeben. Solange es nicht die Franzosen waren, war ihnen alles Recht. Um deren Vormarsch zu verhindern, trieben sie sogar einen Eisenbahnwagon in den Arlbergtunnel und taten damit was sie am Besten konnten, ihn sprengen. Die wesentlich unprätentiöseren Vorarlberger zeigten den Franzosen draufhin the road over the pass but when the troops were looking for a flag that Hofer's men had captured in the Napoleonic wars, it had already been hidden. The second French occupation left the Tyrolean willingly go through, the flag but they have today.
stubborn old skull they are the Tyrol, which must also be said about them. Fortified stubborn skull. If, on the Inn valley motorway the noise is too much, the highway is blocked, or busy. If the country of corruption and nepotism will somewhere administration TIWAG hinbauen a power plant, however, some are calling and the other as "ungrateful rabble" as the Herwig van Staa has made the old silence. As the neighbors to the west are the Tyrolean conservative or more conservative. Of the seven two-thirds majority that could be achieved in the history of the Second Republic by a party, accounted for six of the Tyrolean ÖVP. Meanwhile, this has not once more the absolute majority, but most of the other parliamentary factions are in fact only block parties in the Democratic Volckchsrepublickch Tirol, whose existence is to simulate limited opposition. Because the parts make it more often than the whole, there is then also in the provincial capital of Innsbruck and a city-ÖVP a "irrespectively" List, the party enjoys the confidence of the country. built from the ground, the ex-Upper Austrian van Staa, Mayor to be faster. According to him have Hilde Zach, daughter of a butcher and Fleischkas Hilde-called peace of their ashes, and its successor - what was her name? - Adopted the list system. The largest air corridor of the Republic will therefore continue to be "completely independent" ruled by any party politics. Meanwhile, the provincial People's Party Tirol treated like Forrest Gump's box of chocolates. Since it is based fast times at a private university from nurses to the cleaning lady, the whole country Hospital Association should at least qualify for the Bachelor, until her accreditation withdrawn. A Tyrolean hat is just not a mortarboard. The state-owned electricity company TIWAG sponsors sometimes even the campaign by a People's Party mayor. So you remember: The Tyrolean but are Austrians (at least in the north and east). That it stays that way, but to provide the myriad army soldiers who were stationed in the Tyrol, where the Italians again should drive the imperialist Gusto over the Alps. Because it never occurred and probably not occur in the foreseeable future will be - unless Silvio Berlusconi wants to divert attention from one of his scandals - is the army in the Tyrol, as everywhere else with a comprehensive Order for the alcoholic defense equipped. And understand what the Tyrolean from drinking, even if they sometimes lose track of time and then wake up in Innsbruck car parks with an extended fantasy feeling again.
Who are now so the Tyrol? A slightly aggressive, self-confident nation that has a bitter tongue and a glass is not averse? One could almost believe they were the Klingons Austria. But then the Tyrolean are considerable but mostly as the long-haired warrior from space [Schtar Treckch]. You could have invented the culture form of Törggelen produce, consume more apples in the south than Europe and the Quality of their wines should also have increased, has been built since the Arlberg train and killed the sweet booze the South Tyrolean vineyards in the Rhine Valley has
Granted, they are sometimes a bit of yesterday. Its constitution is like in the old days still "state order" and has a preamble that "the fidelity of God and historical heritage, the spiritual and cultural unity of the whole country" conjures. The last Austrian to seek God in the Constitution which had been read by Engelbert Dollfuss in person. After all, there are also officially brothels in Tirol. With the many barracks, but this is a civilizational self-preservation measure.
The Tyrolean
are nice people, maybe not as modern as others today, but like most were yesterday. You pilgrimage - the majority - no longer Anderl von Rinn, and they not only choose People's Party, but also ÖVP, Austrian People's Party and NC-VP. Ah yes ... and SVP of course. In Gegegnsatz to the half truths that some bad jokes circulate about them, they may well say banana "ckch" without equal and they do not hit any of the dead comes too close ... do a little coma's, too.
