“… The germanophone area in central Europe is far from being homogenous, not only in political terms due to its (primary) division in three independent countries, but also in linguistic terms: besides its diatopic subdivision with dozens of different dialects from northern Germany down to South Tyrol, from east Belgium to Brandenburg, long-since German is considered a pluricentric language with three national standard varieties: German, Austrian and Swiss standard German.
