Everyone feels a little German except Luigi and Pedro.
For me, as far as Scotland is concerned, it’s obviously Ireland. 🇮🇪
Although, fun fact, a poll around the time of the first independence referendum found that most SNP supporters feel Scotland’s culturally “closest” to… Norway.
I’m rather surprised to see both French and Germans be able to make out so much similarity between the two countries. Having been to France around three times myself (Paris, Avignon/Marseille, Strasbourg), I can’t subscribe to that at all. It definitely always felt like an entirely different culture to me.
Germans not saying the U.K. shows just how little they know about the world outside of German speaking countries.
Switzerland with Germany as a close second.
Pretty obvious, since they are the other 2 german speaking countries.
For the last time: I DON’T WANT TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH FR*NCE
Nordic Brotherhood.
1) Netherlands,
2) Germany,
3) France,
4) Luxembourg,
5) UK
British one seems pretty accurate, though Canada should be a bit lower down the list. They’re more like Americans than they are us these days.
Yanks just listing every foreign country they can think of
Bit surprised with France being so high for us, because I think Scandinavia is far more similar culturally
For France, I would say it mostly depends on where you live and which country is next to the border (let’s be honest the South-West is clearly and extension of Spain ) , but if we take France as a whole and if we look at history I would say Italy hands down
I really like the fact UK peole say they are similar to France but not any french people say the same. Worst part is, France is probably the second most similar culture when you compare it to UK
A rare W from Barry here. Americans who think they are similar to the UK, the UK who consider themselves closer to the French than to the Americans. They didn’t even put the US on their list lmao.
I do like them but I wouldn’t say we got anything in common.
Not really culturally but Basque Country and Wales have a fairly similar situation.
Both have their own cultural identity and national pride. Both have their own language floating around 800,000-900,000 speakers. Both have a significant amount of the population who want to leave the UK/Spain. Both have baller flags including the colours red white and green
Edit: As for the actual culture side of things I guess the most obvious one would be scotland
Britain… tragically
Brazil is basically the same thing
Pierre and us have assigned each other the same percentage, that’s so romantical
Ah yes we chose former colonies first
Really Spain? We live right next to each other and most of our dishes are very similar yet Italy is the one you think is most similar to you?

As long as they Germans don’t practice what they preach in surveys like these I am happy
I‘m confused, where do Americans get the German similarity from?
Sidenote but what the fuck are the yanks on saying Germany is similar to the US
I love how no one mentions USA.
Yeah, I’d say Italians are fake-angry Spanish. Love them though.
Just glad that Belgium is mentioned and not by the USA
Damn so France is close to all true west europe countries. What a surprise…
There are some who will need a lot of copium to bear with that.
ew to the 53% of britons who think they’re anything like us

🇮🇪 The Irish weren’t polled by Yougov (the poll in the OP) but there’s [this](https://www.thejournal.ie/ireland-thinks-eu-countries-6375668-May2024/) from May this year — most said **Denmark** is the European country “closest” to Ireland, followed by **Spain** and **Portugal**.
For France, I would say it mostly depends on where you live and which country is next to the border (let’s be honest the South-West is clearly and extension of Spain ) , but if we take France as a whole and if we look at history I would say Italy hands down

Very true, with the exception of Canada.
