Your Favourite European Nation or State (Apart from your own)
Vote for Your Favourite European Nation (Apart from your own). I excuse myself if I left out someone out, the poll can be modified subsequently.
EDIT: A Poll was added. Not all of the listed can be considered Nations due to various reasons. Some possible Nations were possibly left out.

__________________
The traditions of the Irish people are the oldest of any race in Europe north and west of the Alps, and they themselves are the longest settled on their own soil - Edmund Curtis (A History of Ireland: From Earliest Times to 1922) The Irish are one of the most ancient nations that I know of at this end of the world, and are from as mighty a race as the world ever brought forth. For it is certain that Ireland hath had the use of letters very anciently and long before England; that they had letters anciently is nothing doubtful, for the Saxons of England are said to have their letters and learning, and learned men, from the Irish. - Edmund Spenser (writer, and British Government Official in Ireland, AD 1596). The renaissance began in Ireland seven hundred years before it was known in Italy. And Armagh, the ecclesiastical capital of Ireland, was at one time the metropolis of civilisation. - Arsene Darmesteter, Professor of Old French and Literature Ireland can indeed lay claim to a great past; she can not only boast of having been the birthplace and abode of high culture in the fifth and sixth centuries . . . but also of having made strenous efforts in the seventh and up to the tenth century to spread her learning among the German and Romance peoples, thus forming the actual fountain of our present continental civilisation. - Heinrich Zimmer, Professor of Celtic and Sanskrit, Member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences

Re: Your Favourite European Nation (Apart from your own)
Hungary.
 Ireland and Austria were close too, but still Hungary is IMO the one I like the most due to my blood relations, hundreds of years of history between Croatia and Hungary and of course they have shown to be by far our best friends and neighbours.
