You’ll probably want to go and look at this post to see why this is “another” German map.
But, this is another German map, this time detailing the results of the recent European Parliament elections in that country.
That’s the Centre-Right CDU/CSU in grey and the Far-Right AfD in blue. And you’ll note that the country is – once again – divided up right down its historic East/West border. The weird bit here being that the ex-Communist Bloc East is voting for a far-right party that supports Russian president Vladimir Putin, who is all for reliving those halcyon days when the USSR and Eastern Europe was all powerful.
Well, in the USSR and Eastern Europe, anyway.
Still, the Western side is holding onto parties with far less extreme policies.
So I guess things could be worse.
See what I mean?
Ouch.
