    @@LeonNFG To be honest, generally I think it would be better if some Danes thought more in line with one of Andersen's song lyrics... It's not "I Odense er jeg født" or "I København har jeg hjemme", but "I Danmark...". The constant bickering that usually commences whenever Copenhagen is mentioned in the media gets *really* tiring *really* quickly. Denmark really isn't big enough to have this big national divide that people - mainly from Jutland and sometimes Fuen - seem to insist on it having.

    I find it hilarious they say Copenhagen is neat, tidy and "tight"? EVERYONE from any other city in Denmark would say it is dirty, messy, chaotic and that people are much more loudmouthed, obnoxious and so on. Interesting how perspectives change depending on where you're from, in this regard. Though I suppose coming in from the UK, where London is many many times bigger than Copenhagen, there would be obvious differences like this as well.

Its small size usually surprises tourists, a bit like the Mona Lisa. 3) Smørrebrød is the tits. 4) Our 'snaps' is very different to the 'schnapps', with has much less alcohol, much more sugar, and is fruit-flavoured, like for example Archers. Very much an acquired taste.

    Concerning the size of Copenhagen and Stockholm, it really depends on what forgives you go by. Copenhagen ranks higher when it comes to Metropolitan area, whereas Stockholm ranks higher in terms of city population; which is to be expected, as Copenhagen “City”, is only a fraction of the actual city, and really can’t be used in a representative comparison.

    Your wrong Hans Christian Andersen he was born on Island of Funen in city of Odense, all though he lived most of his adult life in Copenhagen, you can’t give Copenhagen all the credit for that. Your also wrong about Lego it was created by the carpenter Ole Kirk Christiansen who lived in central part of Jutland in the city of Billund. So again nothing to do with Zealand ore Copenhagen. There is something you British need to understand, Denmark is not only Copenhagen. Just like England is not only London. Around 4 million Danes live outside Copenhagen you should try to go to Jutland ore Funen you will find out Denmark is much more than just Copenhagen.

    I love Copenhagen but come to think of it, hotel receptionist was incredibly rude, then at the museum guards yelled at me for assuming free entry with City pass meant I can skip the line, then I tried to enter a bus and the driver yelled at me and demanded to know where I'm from for not knowing you have to enter through first door (no sign said that). Then my train to Stockholm (purchased online) got cancelled and I wasn't notified, picture me waiting alone at train tracks outside the building while inside it said 'Cancelled' on the board. Maybe I'm a masochist.

    jokes aside, denmark is listed as one of the happiest countries in the world because if you complain you become outcast, probably the least effecient country when it comes to democracy as it's not really a democracy when majority of the parties all are of the same breed and the majority people of the countries people are too silent to for anything to be done about it. Denmark has freedom of speech and expression, but still when people protest against the popular opinion in denmark they get arrested, all against human rights and danish laws. Denmark is still a lovely country and people in denmark are mostly friendly (all countries have their hooligans and bigots) but to live in denmark requires a certain self control and self denial + the ability to keep your opinions to your self unless it is of the same as the popular opinion in the country at that given time. next there of, denmark is a very capitalistic country with "paid benfits" going to the doctor in denmark is "free" but medicin is not (usually medicin is really expensive in denmark and the price can change drastically from one day to another) you do get to use emergency hospitals "for free" and denmark also has "free" education. i'm putting "free" in quotations, as in denmark you also pay the low amount of minimum 37% of your salery in taxes so nothing in denmark is free and also, you don't get paid that much to live on when attending education/school, you get paid just enough to pay for a 1 room flat, most have to work to earn money to actually live, for transport and food. If a job isnt available for you, you can LOAN money from the government with a fixed rent, and almost everyone in denmark ends up with a debt on their education LOAN that they pay off the rest of their lives besides the minimum 37% in taxes. So no, nothing in denmark is free and most of what you pay for, most people don't use it or need it and still people complain about people who do need it and look down on people who are in need of help. what i want to say with this message is, that denmark and the people of denmark are lovely, if you come as tourist and have money (they love that, as do all tourist countries) but living in denmark is something completely different, under the lovely surface of "happy society" is a dark and grey everyday feel that causes many people in denmark to be depressed, while being depressed is also an illness and is there for something you need help with and people tend to not wanting to be one of those that needs help because they are kind of looked down upon, so many people in denmark are depressed, but lies about it, not just to others but to them selves in order to stay "happy" / fitting in. And luckily you still got lovely people in denmark who are aware and who do try their best to make a difference in their everyday life trying to make communities so people can come together and not feel alone. It's a split country, but happiness is not achieved, but no doubt it's a goal many people try and reach for denmark.
