Yankee Doodle Danish
Denmark is the only nation other than the United States that celebrates US Independence Day on July 4th as a national holiday. I found out about this when I was a stamp collector and came across a series of Danish stamps celebrating US Independence, issued on July 4th. Kinda cool.

Well hell, the things you never expect are the ones that are the best. I wish I had the convenience of moving to Denmark so I could partake in killing muslims there, but I don't think I'll have to wait long for it here.

At least someone appreciates our sacrifices.

Ol' Brooklyn wisdom -

Don't understand? - ask Bluto to translate.

Well, it's a far cry from France deliberately excluding America from their own memorials celebrating the battle at Normandy.
The Dissident Frogman told us all about it in June '03.

I dunno, from what I understand Europeans use any excuse available to take a national holiday. Still though kinda nice.
