    All this time we thought it was the Germans with no sense of humour. Turns out it was the Belarusians all along

    Why has Hungary got it in for the Scots?

      I can’t speak about the Hungarians, but at least in Germany the scottish jokes are all about how they are penny pinchers and Scrooges.

        You go all the way to Scotland for that, instead of the Netherlands?

    Haven’t heard many jokes about Poland since the 90s maybe early 2000s in Germany.

      Really? Car theft jokes are still fairly popular in my experience.

        I know they were, but I haven’t heard one for at least 20 years. Maybe we had too many polish seasonal workers in my town, but no stolen cars.

      If you aren’t italian. You can’t even imagine the animosity between south and north italy. And frankly, in most cases it falls into essentially racism. Even between two adjacent cities. It’s appalling.

      Don’t forget that Italy is basically “The United States of Italy”

    As a Brit, I never joke about the Irish. I was fully expecting it to be a French flag. In fact, I was expecting the French flag to be there a lot

    Would be interesting to see the whole statistic of this. For Germany I’m pretty sure, that its quite a close race between Poland and France.

    I love how belgium is surrounded by banter. 3/4 neighbours chose the tiny state of belgium.

    Edit: Oh my god poor Bosnia
