Regional and national identity.

National identity is someone being described based on the features of the country they are from for example Chinese people. Regional identity is more of a geographical area that people are from so North England or South England. 

An example of regional identity could be Scottish people. Scottish people are represented in two different ways. The friendly and funny kind of people or they can be represented as drunks, aggressive people and that they "all wear kilts and play the bagpipe".

An example of National identity would be British people. British people are represented in different ways for example all British people being rich, speaking weirdly or "posh", always drinking tea. Other ways we are represented is that our favouite sport is football and that all the young people are chavs who ride bikes with their trousers sagging low.

  1. Stephen this feels like an ill thought through piece it lacks solid factual content, it is full of parse generalisations and will definitely not help you come exam time.

    You site Scottish people as Regional Identity? is Scotland a Nation or a Region?
    The language that you use is quite simplistic and not reflective of what we discussed in the class. It may help going forward if you research further into the topics that we discuss in the class before writing up you work.

    Please re-submit this with a planned, researched piece of writing with some lucid examples and much more depth.
