	Austro-Bavarian German
		The Austro-Bavarian language has its origins in the Germanic tribe known as the Baioari or Bajuwarii, who established a tribal duchy, which covered much of what is today Bavaria and some of Austria in the early middle ages and was eventually subdued by Charlemagne.
		In German, there is usually a difference made between "bairisch" (referring to the language) and "bayerisch" (referring to the state of Bavaria).
		Genetically Bavarian is part of the Upper German family along with Alemannic (which includes Swabian and Swiss German), whereas Standard German is part of the Middle German family, closer to Saxon.

	Alemannic German - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
		Nevertheless, even within the Alemannic dialects, not all dialects are mutually intelligible; Swabian (the northern-most dialect) is usually separated from the southern-most dialects.
		Nevertheless, as the standard written and formal language of the Alemannic-speaking regions remains standard German, Alemannic is generally regarded merely as a regional variant of the German language, even by its speakers.
		It can be argued that it is artificial to separate Alemannic from the other Upper German dialects, while grouping the latter with Central German and Low German as a single language, since the High German consonant shift, the main isogloss that separates the German language from the other West Germanic languages, originates in the south.
