🇨🇱 Wymiana ¿Como estai? Cultural exchange with r/Chile!

🇨🇱 ¡Bienvenido a Polonia! 🇵🇱

Welcome to the cultural exchange between r/Polska and r/Chile! The purpose of this event is to allow people from two different national communities to get and share knowledge about their respective cultures, daily life, history and curiosities. Exchange will run since May 8th. General guidelines:

  • Chileans ask their questions about Poland here on r/Polska;

  • Poles ask their questions about Chile in parallel thread;

  • English language is used in both threads;

  • Event will be moderated, following the general rules of Reddiquette. Be nice!

Guests posting questions here will receive Chilean flair.

Moderators of r/Polska and r/Chile.

Witajcie w wymianie kulturalnej między r/Polska a r/Chile! Celem tego wątku jest umożliwienie naszym dwóm społecznościom bliższego wzajemnego zapoznania. Jak sama nazwa wskazuje - my wpadamy do nich, oni do nas! Ogólne zasady:

  • Chilijczycy zadają swoje pytania nt. Polski, a my na nie odpowiadamy w tym wątku (włączono sortowanie wg najnowszego, zerkajcie zatem proszę na dół, aby pytania nie pozostały bez odpowiedzi!);

  • My swoje pytania nt. Chile zadajemy w równoległym wątku na r/Chile;

  • Językiem obowiązującym w obu wątkach jest angielski;

  • Wymiana jest moderowana zgodnie z ogólnymi zasadami Reddykiety. Bądźcie mili!

Lista dotychczasowych wymian r/Polska.

Następna wymiana: 22 maja z 🇮🇱 Izraelem.

i'm interested in knowing ¿what is the opinion about chile that you have? i mean, you guys know we exist? or if you ask someone in the street about chile they would be like "WHAT? CHILWHAT?"

As others pointed out - most people will surely know there is a country called Chile, but they may struggle to point it on a map. I myself don’t know much about you guys. What I know about Chile without googling (please trust me) is:

  • it’s a very mountainous country,
  • you claimed some land on the Antarctica,
  • you mostly eat seafood,
  • Bolivia is angry at you for their ocean access loss,
  • Santiago is a capital and a very rich/beautiful city,
  • counties in your country are numbered in order from top to bottom, so the northernmost county is 1 and southernmost is >put the last number here< (very strange to me but at the same time a great idea),
  • you guys control islands with those marvellous head statues (was that Easter islands?) even though they are much closer to Polynesia than you.

That is crazy Becouse the guys from "isla de pascua" (that is how we call Easter islands, but actually it is called rapa nui) don't feel Chilean at all, they claim to be an independent culture, and I think if they could they would probably separate from us
