The reason people don't like people wandering onto their land is the usa....is getting sued. The amount of lawyers here which will take a case for anyone or any reason is insane. Even if the person knows they won't win, you who are getting sued, is going to lose money and time because you're going to need to pay a lawyer to make sure you don't lose your clothes by the sueing party.
It sucks, thankfully we have a ton of parks...for now.
Some countries have it, not all or even most. Sweden is not representative of the entirety of Europe.
In Greece you arent even allowed to camp outside of very limited designated camp sites(though laws in Greece are more like suggestions, so many people still go camping in forests).
There's plenty of forests and countryside where you could pitch a tent just fine. At worst, you'd have to talk to a farmer to ask if you can pitch your tent on their land.
Tbf, from first hand experience i can say people are fucking animals when it goes to camping. We used to have places where it was tolerated but people shat and pissed everywhere. Left their garbage behind, food waste attracted animals etc.
People are unbelievable stupid, so they kinda had to ban it and force that ban.

It took me reading the rest of your comment, and a lot of thought, before I realized you were using the word "fucking" as some kind of intensifier instead of as the word for "having sex with."
You do not have the right to organise a nazi party. You only have two parties, no others are allowed. One of them accidentally turned nazi. That is something completely different than "organize a nazi party".
Mmmh ... You can start a new party in the US. If it's really successful, it may supplant one of the two parties that are there. The issue with the system, however, is that all incentives are aligned against more than two parties being successful at the same time.
That's a bit different from you (cis male, I guess) becoming pregnant, in that you actually don't have the right hardware (meatware?). I guess comparing with your 58-year-old mother-in-law becoming pregnant may be more apt. ^^
You seem to know your inclusive gender terminology well, why not inclusive pregnancy terminology? So, I'm talking about a classical man/woman relationship. Sure a woman carries the embryo and she does all the heavy lifting (pun intended). I'm not saying it's an equal divide. But a man also shares in the pregnancy. We very much experience hormonal and psychological change as well. https://www.menshealth.com/health/a19529157/how-pregnancy-affects-the-father/
That was not the point of this thread, but you got me triggered.

I stopped pretending being smart a while ago, so I’m genuinely lost 🙃
Also I don’t speak German, except I only know “kunsthistorisches” for some reason
You would typically walk around the edge of it, but you don't have permission to do that either and we don't have the right to roam here. Also not all land is agricultural fields, pasture and woodland for example.
Ha no, but I like his content. He camps like that just for the camping like that, but I do it because I’m out kayaking or similar and just need to camp somewhere.
Is the right to roam really worth the loss of the fundamental freedom to shoot someone who steps on your lawn?
Absolutely not!

My wrist hurt reading that
I've actually shot one and while it was weird and uncomfortable, the recoil wasn't that bad. Owning one is kinda stupid though.

Same in Germany
Not same in Germany 😅
I live in Bavaria so probably on a mountain

Same. I was like, wow, that's really bad behavior while camping.
In Italy we have both so, take that I guess 🙃🥲

I that same sense me and my wife have a right to get pregnant, but I got my tubes tied.

What exactly are you talking about?
The video is from an American expat living in Germany with her family. Her video is originally in English.
YouTube started a feature where they auto translate videos to your assumed language. Might that be the case here?
Post a screenshot, what client are you using?

Op is innocent on this one!
There is no German text when I look at the OP.

I guess you visited vienna?
Exactly. But also when studying art history you find it on the captions of the manual
England didn't even when part of the EU.
Though Scotland does!
I know, this is why I said England rather than UK. Not sure on Wales/NI. Either way, not really a practical option to get there.
And camper vans are ruining that
England has limited right to roam plus public right of way. This effectively means that most land is accessible one way or another.
The vast majority of land isn't open access though. Most woodlands and fields are privately owned and you are not allowed to walk through them.
We have public right of way, so you can definitely walk through them.
Only if there is a public footpath through it. Otherwise you are trespassing if you don't have the land owners permission
Why would you walk over an overgrown field?
You would typically walk around the edge of it, but you don't have permission to do that either and we don't have the right to roam here. Also not all land is agricultural fields, pasture and woodland for example.
Great content, as someone who “stealth camps” often I would love that openness. Thank you for sharing.
The right to roam specifically does NOT include camping though.
The video said in some Nordic countries it does, you just can't be in close proximity to the land owners house.
Ha no, but I like his content. He camps like that just for the camping like that, but I do it because I’m out kayaking or similar and just need to camp somewhere.
In Spain its also forbidden to own beaches. You can wander any beach with no restriction.
No one will report you roaming if you open carry. /s
Except for those who open carry too.
