		Maracuchos (and most of the inhabitants of Zulia state) are known to be the only users of the word "vos" when referring to others, alike of Argentinians; in the rest of the country the word "Tu" or "Usted" is used, this has led Maracuchos to be recognized mostly anywhere by their rough accent.

	granma.cu - Zulia, another Washington bid
		Possessing a strong regionalism expressed in a particular way of speaking, a diverse folklore, more conservative social procedures and even separatist intentions that have flowered on more than one occasion, the Zulia scenario is a tempting one for a new Washington maneuver within its many and unfruitful attempts to defeat the Bolivarian Revolution.
		Other closer indications of something being plotted, although still not evidence, are the excellent friendship between Rosales and Browning and the frequent visits by the U.S. ambassador to Zulia, which he has described as the best state in Venezuela.
		One has to say, like the Venezuelan journalist and writer Luis Britto: "when the media sounds, it is bringing secession;" however, he adds: "the nation that gave five countries their independence will not lose its own." And the people of Zulia are also Bolivarian, and thus in Washington’s sights.
