I would say from what little I know, that it would be a nice place to live in. Rich in history and culture (Big History Nerd here).

Then again I detest the welfare systems of Europe.

Never been to Denmark myself, but I think it's an interesting country. Sure it's small, but Denmark's also pretty old. People have been living there for a long time.

The Danish... dear God help us all.

Just kidding, never met a Dane myself, nor have I been these. Cenere seems nice enough, so I'll go off that.

Denmark's great! They've got so many wind generators there. Home of Lego too. I also got something called a "Hoptimist" There. It's a cute little wood guy, with a big dome-like head, a spring connecting him, and some legs.
Here's some:

I've been to Denmark, it's a nice place. But WOW it has a lot of different things I don't have here, but nevertheless it's a nice place!

they dont do much so i dont think they can be trusted

never been to Denmark ive only been to US and Canada i know where and what it is
and Masterforge cool little wooden men

I've never been to Denmark before but I've already met Danish people and they are really friendly. I would like to visit that country one day.

Oh, forgot to add, the main point of the Hoptimists is that you bob them on the head with a finger and they'll start jiggling for a while. They're very amusing!

Sure it's small, but Denmark's also pretty old. People have been living there for a long time.

Denmark seems like a country I wanna visit one day, been to Sweden and Norway.
Danish sounds funny for me since I can speak Swedish. I mean, I can understand also Norwegian quite a bit but Danish is always just enough different sounding that I can't listen to it - but if I have a translation I'm like "Ahh, of course that's what they said. Why didn't I get it?"
