agree  Herbert Fipke: oder so
2 mins
  -> Danke Herbert.
neutral  Martin Schmurr: Rheinhessen is a small part of Hessen, while the original seems to want the whole of Hessen and more
17 mins
  -> Not sure because asker did already want to know Hessian Uplands so must not have been happy with answers received. Maybe one should squash the question as it is repetitive.
neutral  Pee Eff (X): yep, Rheinhessen is a region on its own - but it's not in Hessen as Martin suggested. It is in Rheinland-Pfalz between Mainz and Worms.

Pfalz, Odenwald und Taunus


Explanation:
...als Alternative. Das sind die drei einzigen Höhenzüge, die in/um Hessen liegen und mit dem Rhein zu tun haben.

Die Landschaft heißt auch "Rheinhessen", da ist dann Alles mit drin.

disagree  Martin Schmurr: Rheinhessen ist Hessen westlich des Rheins, O. und T. sind östlich. Der Odenwald hat nichts mit dem Rhein zu tun.
17 mins
  -> Tja, als Rheinländer aus Bonn ist alles Rechtsheinische 'eh schon Polen...
neutral  Andrea Kopf: Als Neu-Mainzerin weiß ich inzwischen, dass die Gegend um Mainz Rheinhessen heißt.
36 mins
disagree  Pee Eff (X): Rheinhessen is NOT Hessen, it is in Rheinland-Pfalz. And the Pfalz doesn't have to do anything with Hessen at all...
