Fun fact: People usually think that Britain and France has been most at war with one another, but Denmark and Sweden has actually been more at war (at least in terms of unique wars)[0].
Here is a non-exhaustive list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dano-Swedish_war http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dano-Swedish_war
[0] The Hundred Years' War sort of ruins the statistics in terms of years at war.

- oneandoneis2 13y agoThat's as maybe, but we hate the French more than Denmark &Sweden hate each other! :P
- arethuza 13y agoExcept the Scots traditionally don't hate the French ;-) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auld_Alliance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auld_Alliance
- mkingston 13y agoCould this then be why the English hate the Scots? In fact, do the English like anyone at all..?
- oneandoneis2 13y agoThe English don't like any foreigners. We're not even particularly fond of the English. We're amazingly tolerant, living in peace when surrounded by people we don't like ;)
- arethuza 13y agoThe English do not hate the Scots - and if you look at the number of English people who have houses and holiday in France they don't really hate France either....
- mkingston 13y agoI know, I know; it was in jest. And the English do seem to like France. We can look back in time to see that much. (Another joke..). I'm still not sure they like the French.
