Paris and Mezzogiorno Paris Basin is to Europe what the GDA is to Ireland – mild
climate, low lying, good farmland, good communication links and well developed secondary and tertiary sector.
Mezzogiorno is Italy’s BMW region – more rural, generally poorer, dependent on primary activities and with a harsher climate.
Also Mezzogiorno is home to the Camorra (Naples based Mafia) – means that efforts to tackle underdevelopment of the region are often stopped by corruption
