I don't know, Rock Me Amadeus was a pretty cool song and those dudes were Austrian.

There's an old joke that goes:

Heaven is where the police are British, the cooks are French, the mechanics German, the lovers Italian and it's all organized by the Swiss. Hell is where the chefs are British, the mechanics French, the lovers Swiss, the police German and it's all organized by the Italians.

Are these stereotypes accurate?


Hehe, actually the Italians are far more clever than we give them credit for and in the north of Italy, things are well organized. A more accurate assessment would be that the Greek should never be allowed to organize anything. Greece is in many ways like third a world country, with chaotic traffic, bad infrastructure, corruption and tax evasion.

...corruption and tax evasion.

Isn't that true for every country?

To some degree, but in Greece it has become destructive.
