Padania

This is the name used by the Lega Nord (Northern League) to mean all of the north of Italy, that is roughly all of the Po basin and the Veneto, which are inhabited by people who are alleged to be of Celtic rather than Latin origin. According to the most extreme members of the league, Padania should aim for secession from the rest of Italy, which is dominated by a “corrupt” Rome, and, in particular, the south, which is considered uncivilized and backward. For opponents and critics of the league, Padania is a meaningless term, which does not correspond to any geographically, historically or linguistically unified area, and the myth of the Padani who are direct descendants of the ancient Celtic people is nothing but a ridiculous sham.

Terrone

This word is derived from terra (land or earth), because it refers to an agricultural worker who used to work on the land on the large estates in the south of Italy. It has become the most common word used by northern Italians to describe a southern Italian in a pejorative and racist way, usually with the additional meaning of “ignorant, dirty, uncivilized” being understood. The term gained currency in the 1960s and 1970s when there was widespread immigration of southern Italians into the industrial towns and cities of the northwest. In Italy today insulting terms of a racist nature concentrate largely on foreign immigrants from outside the European Community, and the term terrone is less widely used and often takes on humorous overtones (especially when used by southerners themselves). Its negative sense has, however, been given a boost by the anti-southern polemic of the Lega Nord.
