The Irish—A very small country, but considered polite and humble. They nominally dislike the English, but I have yet to meet an Irishman who really loathes the English. The sentiments towards the Irish and by the Irish seem to be positive, overall.

I personally don’t know much about how the Portuguese, Hungarians, Romanians, Bulgarians, and others are perceived, or how they perceive others.[31] I’ll leave you with this poster I saw in an Italian office years ago, that helps sum it up in some ways:

In Heaven...

* the mechanics are German

* the chefs are French

* the police are British

* the lovers are Italian

* and everything is organized by the Swiss.

In Hell...

* the mechanics are French

* the chefs are British

* the police are German

* the lovers are Swiss

* and everything is organized by the Italians
