“Bavaria’s booming economy and the lowest unemployment rate in Germany have meant an influx of job seekers, creating a more mobile and secular society with each passing year. And long before they began bailing out Greeks, Portuguese and Irish, the Bavarians were bailing out the weaker states of their own country. As Germany is to Europe, Bavaria is to Germany: richer, more competitive and reluctant to keep footing the bill for the laggards. It is little wonder that some in Bavaria, who proudly trace their history back more than 1,000 years, ask if they might be better off on their own.”
