Found this video on YouTube based on Reddit posts where people share wholesome facts about their countries. I thought it was fun. Feel free to share some about your country too.
Ok Netherlands, you are very wholesome, but in all fairness you're the only country where you guys once ate your Prime Minister, then sold his mutated body parts as souvenirs! Not so wholesome.
Here are a few I found in the comment section.
"Wholesome fact about Liechtenstein: when Liechtensteins army last went to war in 1866 their 80 soldiers were sent out to protect a mountain pass in Austria at the border to Italy (the stelvio pass). But after the war ended 81 soldiers returned to Liechtenstein because they befriended an Italian at the pass.
Norway has knighted a king penguin. It is called Sir Nils Olav III and lives in Edinburgh zoo. The penguin is promoted each time the Kings Guard returns to the zoo.
In Ireland you get payed €2,540 when you turn 100. It’s called The Centenarian Bounty, and is an award from the Irish Government.
In the nederlands, next to my flat, we have a plant hospital.
Basically you can bring your dying plant and they will heal it and you can adopt another plant for around a euro.
In Germany parents who have more than six children can ask the President to be the godparent of their 7th child and then the president sends 500€ to that 7th child.
=> In Belgium, it's the King, but I think it's only the 7th boy, and the queen for the 7th girl.
In Finland
If you’re about to have a baby the goverment will send you a free baby box worth 170€ it has 56 things in it including summer and winter clothes a stuffed animal, blanket and all the basic supplies you need aaand the box has a mattress so it can be the first bed for the baby
