Not entirely no, southern and Eastern Switzerland should be given to Italy and France respectively

Rugia?

Minor ethnicities are too irrelevant to have a stand alone nation

Szczecin?

Tell that to the HRE @Deleted User

That wasn't a nation, it was

Well

The HRE wasn't really drawn along ethnic lines though

A shitfest

Lol

It has several tiny nations

Had

Because it was a sort-of confederation

I'm just saying

Small nations could be protected by the bigger ones

Sorbia if taken from Poland and Germany

Might be fine

Plus

The HRE predates the idea of nationalism

Well

There was always nationalism

I hate when people say that

Until its very end of it's life

You don't think people cared about if France survived?

It wasn't the big multi ethnic society

Like Germany

But bavarians and the like cared about their identity

Germany is an artificial concept

Yeah there was nationalism amongst the nobility sometimes such as in Scotland where they didn't want to be ruled over by Anglos and started rebellions, but nationalism was nowhere close to the scale it would reach later

I'm just saying

It existed

Yes

Thing is about Germany us

The union killed a lot of smaller German cultures

Or dialects

It kinda just absorbed them into larger groups

Yeah

That's what nationalism is

Then what about Russia?

Regional identities are either worn down or eliminated entirely

It's still very diverse
