Famous Countries

From emperor penquins to cocaine use... this new map from The Doghouse Diaries has revealed the surprising things that countries are best at.


The colourful map above shows what each country leads the world in... The Netherlands and United Kingdom are too small to see what is written across the country's geographical territory, but what do you reckon? What's our country famous for?

I pondered The Netherlands could potentially take the lead in marijuana consumption, tulips or clog wearers. And United Kingdom could claim its fame for gingerheads, football hooligans and teadrinkers (oh how stereotypical of me)

But, based on statistics gathered from across the internet from sources such as the World Bank and Guiness World Records, my two favourite countries seem to take the lead in the following:





United Kingdom leads the world in Fascist Movements

&

The Dutch for being the tallest!


I am not a big fan of this form of radical authoritarian nationalism as existing in the UK, so the Dutch giants will take the lead this post!

Liefs,
