So quick info, who are these parties and any idea why (and with how much coincidence) this divide exists?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

AfD is Alternative fur Deutschland, a far right party. This divide is present ever since the division of Germany into East and West Germany and persists to this day despite the fact that the wall fell in 1989. It is definitely not coincidence that there is a political and demographical divide.
