As a result of the reform of the regions, it will soon say Grand East. The people of Alsace, Champagne-Ardenne and Lorraine will have to decide between three new names chosen by experts, elected officials and citizens drawn. Three names that surprise and which are far from unanimous in the East.
The Lorraine feel wronged. “Acalie”, “New Austrasie” and “Champagne-Rhin”, these three names do not mean much to the Lorraine. In Metz, for example, residents have a little feeling of being left out, having been turkeys reform regions. “If we call the Rhine-Champagne region, I think it misses someone between! Lorraine does not appear in the proposed names is a bad point for us,” explains an inhabitant. “Maybe Austrasie back memories of the past,” said, meanwhile another Messin before being answering, “by these times, we need to something readable and very direct. It not let this refers to territoriality or borders. Name the three regions therefore seems to me the most reasonable. “
the names” which meant nothing. “ at 150 kilometers from Metz, Strasbourg, the view is different. In the small France, the Alsatians are, indeed, quite satisfied that the name of the region appears in the three names retained. Even though they readily admit, the meaning of the names proposed for their area a little escapes them. “Austrasie? Even if it’s difficult to remember, this gives a little Gallic name, the Middle Ages”, thus a fun Strasbourg before adding, “I think the name is the Champagne-Rhin best choice because it is a bit of Alsace which is a strong area of French history. “
on Monday, the Champenois, the Alsace and Lorraine can vote online for one of three names. The verdict will be next month at the Regional Council.
