I'm interested in understanding the cultural differences and similarities between Scotland and Wales. During my time in Scotland, I was particularly struck by the strong sense of collectivism among the Scots, which I perceived as being distinct from English individualism, and their straightforward communication style that avoided circumlocution. Given my experience in Scotland, I'm curious to know if I would find similar cultural traits in Wales. Could anyone with knowledge on this topic shed light on whether the Welsh share these characteristics with the Scots? And to what extent has Welsh culture been influenced or assimilated by English/Anglo-Saxon culture?
