In this week's episode we will tackle the complicated issue of the extreme localism that involves towns big and small in our region in a perennial battle of mockery and slights. If the roots of these rivalries are well identified when it comes to the feud between Pisa and Leghorn or between Siena and Florence, when we get to much smaller towns, it becomes almost impossible to explain why people don't like each other's guts. Foreigners are always bewildered by this phenomenon and by the enthusiasm that Tuscans have for mocking their neighbours mercilessly. What do you think about it? Are you aware of other local rivalries that involve towns in your neck of the woods? Let us know by joining the conversation on our social media accounts:
