      Most of the (Western) Europe is still phenomenal but invaders are gonna destroy it. Even in "their" areas or districts buildings are still there but I guarantee you will see next few dozens years everything go deteriorated because newEuropeans won't maintain it. They hate us, hate our culture and what our ancestors built.They will even on purpose demolish our churches and cathedrals because for them infidels made it. Dark times ahead of us. Thanks Socialists, Green party and other traitors!

They would refer to it as Alsace Germany so this was many generations ago when it was part of Germany but no one in my family has returned to Alsace to reconnect with old family. I think this is a sign for me to do just that.

      Alsace, a region in what is now eastern France, has a complex history of cultural and political influences, alternating between French and German rule over the centuries. Its origins, however, lean more toward Germanic roots before becoming part of France.
      Early History:
      Roman Era: The area was originally inhabited by Celtic tribes before being incorporated into the Roman Empire.
      Germanic Migration: After the fall of Rome in the 5th century, Germanic tribes, particularly the Alemanni, settled in Alsace.
      Holy Roman Empire: By the early Middle Ages, Alsace became part of the eastern Frankish Kingdom, which evolved into the Holy Roman Empire, a predominantly Germanic entity.
      French Rule:
      17th Century: Alsace came under French control during the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). The Treaty of Westphalia in 1648 formally ceded much of the region to France. This marked the start of Alsace's integration into France, although Germanic languages and customs remained dominant for a long time.
      German Rule:
      1871-1918: Following the Franco-Prussian War, Alsace, along with Lorraine, was annexed by the newly unified German Empire.
      World Wars: After Germany's defeat in World War I, Alsace was returned to France in 1918. It was briefly annexed again by Nazi Germany during World War II (1940-1945) before being restored to France.
      Cultural Identity:
      Throughout its history, Alsace has been a melting pot of French and German influences. The local dialect, Alsatian, is a Germanic language, but French has been the dominant administrative and cultural language since the region's incorporation into France.
      In summary, while Alsace was originally more Germanic in cultural and political terms, its identity has evolved under both French and German rule, leading to the unique blend of traditions and languages seen today.
