		Swabia (German: Schwaben) is both a historic and linguistic (see Swabian German) region in Germany.
		Swabia, whose name derives from the Suebi, a Germanic tribe that inhabited the region, was one of the original stem duchies of the German Kingdom, as it developed in the 9th and 10th centuries.
		The League was quite successful, notably expelling the Duke of Württemberg in 1519 and putting in his place a Habsburg governor, but the league broke up a few years later over religious differences inspired by the Reformation, and the Duke of Württemberg was soon restored.

		Danube-Swabians are ethnic Germans, originally from many areas in Germany (primarily Würtemberg and the Palatinate), who settled in an area known as the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the 18th century during the reign of Empress Maria Theresa.

		The Germans struggled against Magyarization actually petitioning the empire to have their own German Count assigned and to be under the direct protection of the empire rather that the Hungarians.

	Interview with Chris Loewl (1) - The German Way
		Although we'd always spoken German at home, my modest grasp of it was of little use in the hill country of the Swabian Alb, where folks spoke a dialect very different from what I'd ever heard (it was considered the Language of Rubes in the next city, 20 kilometers away).
		Over the course of 15 years I mellowed out a bit, "matured" and took on many German traits against my liking (like the German wisdom that "humor" rhymes with "tumor") or better judgment, but added some things like a decent work ethic and attention to detail that are still with me today.
		For me, it all started in the mid-1950s when my German dad enlisted in the US Army, did basic training in Fort Dix and was stationed in Munich, some 200 km (124 mi) from his hometown.
