Bavarians

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bavarians are a German people from Bavaria, Germany. They are the inheritors of the Bavarii[citation needed], which occupied modern-day Bavaria and its surroundings in Roman times.

Bavarians are identified:

  1. by birth or residence in the Freestate of Bavaria
  2. by language and culture (Austro-Bavarian dialects, History of Bavaria, Bavarian culture).

There exists a political party called Bayernpartei which calls for a distinct Bavarian citizenship.
