Skilled nationalities?

Does anybody have a clue in a general perspective of how good different nations are?
There has been a lot of talk that scandinavians are good (tight), english are crap and americans generally looser and more aggressive...
Does anybody have any knowledge about this subject?

The only thing I have noticed online is that English and Australian players play like total maniacs. They'll raise/rerasie you with crap, donk bet all over the place, bluff you on the river, etc.

I played on Doyle's Room a little bit and for some reason there was a high concentration of UK and Aussie players and they were all complete maniacs.

I've also noticed it on PP a little bit.

I guess they are looking for a good gamb0000l.

If they were intelligent they'd stand up to their feminists! What a horror show Sweden is politically.
