The German speaking area, which includes Germany, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Luxemburg, and a few other areas, is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_dialects rich in dialects]. So different are the dialects from each other that people from one area cannot understand speakers from other dialect areas. For example, a northern German could not understand a Swissman if the latter is speaking in his dialect. However, in the last century or so, standardization through the media and educational systems has eroded much of the traditional dialects or, at least, imposed to some degree a standard dialect onto the population.
