Scotland and Wales
 
If these two places (I baulk at calling them countries) are so great, then why are so many of their proud sons and daughters living in England and not in the Nirvana they claim their homeland to be?

Clearly the grass is greener elsewhere than the green green grass of home.

I'll bite.

Scotland is great, but it's the Scots that make it. They're superb wherever they go. That is why the British Empire was built on the back of Scotsmen and Scottish inventions (Television, pneumatic tyre, tarmac, the list goes on and on)

England became part of the Scottish Crown, but their jealousy never stopped :p

Fine places to live, but remember it was the Scots who created the wealth for England (who squandered it very quickly), and created great countries like Canada and the continental USA. The history of Canada and the US is steeped with scots. That's why so many north americans and canadians come over to Scotland to retrace their roots, and why so many scots leave the UK for Canada and the US.

It's their nature that makes them liked and respected all over the world..
