While we're doing scientifically-unsound polls, might as well do this one too!

[Poll #1636721]

Only separated out the major/predominantly English-speaking nations because there are probably way more of even one of those than any of the others combined.

This isn't about politics, it's about geographical, physical location. You don't have to identify as an American to be from the US! Chill!

True. They were big on the whole "isolationism" thing way back when. I've just had bad experiences with British 'friends' who consider themselves above any other European country (including my own, and have very explicitly stated so), so comments like that just instinctively raise my hackles.

Ugh, I hate people who behave like that. I promise you I do not share that attitude, and I'm sorry if I led you to believe that way. In fact, I admire a heck of a lot more about the Scandinavian countries' internal systems than I do about our own.

*er, that should be has*

We're not all like that! Lots and lots of people don't feel superior, in some cases all that's left over is a vague feeling that we're somehow not European!
