  1. Exactly! Any idiots who doesn't even know football and history behind these clubs should get language lessons. Football clubs in Spain were traditionally supported by the independence and the government. Three simple ways you can tell them apart. 1. Real means 'Royal' and those teams are always supported by the government. Since Madrid is the capital, they got the biggest support. 2. All the team's logo will have a 'crown' at the top. That's the biggest giveaway. 3. The rest of the team will not have the 'crown' if they are independent. That's why politics and religions are often front and centre of football. Celtics and Rangers in Scotland would be a prime example. Along with social classes within the same city often created hatred for each other in many of their own city derby.

  2. Well, I agree to disagree. Nations in general are never that straight forward in the first place. A lot of times, protecting culture and identities are often not the cause. Rather, brutality, pillaging and plundering others based on hatred and greed were the more direct reasons. Come on now. Seriously? Christopher Colombus was a fool but other people fabricated on his so-called accomplishments. So you are telling me that during Industrialization, all the European powers taking colonies all the world was legit, correct? I think you are simplifying to the other populations outside of Spain. There are many regions around the world with similar concerns even in my own backyard of Canada with Quebec. It goes on a lot deeper than that. For sure I will do my own homework and not taking what you said because there are full of holes.
