Wales is a country famous for its beautiful breathtaking scenery, friendly people,coal mines, wldlife, and one of the oldest launguages. Wales is usually sereotyped, we are often called sheep shaggers, which we are not.people in wales live in usually small communities in the valleys like myself, but also have busy and exciting towns like cardiff. we have tourist attractions such as Snowdonia where you can take a train ride to the summit of Snowdon and view the fantastic views, or the town with the longest name ever, llanfairpwllgwyngwll - gogeruqueendrob - pwllandisillio - gogogoch (sorry if theres a spelling mistake lol!) there are beautiful coastlines and interesting people with many a story to tell.hearing locals speak our launguage will leave tourists mesmorised. there are many famous welshes, tom jones, catherine zeta jones, charlotte church, gavin henson to name a few. Wales is a very Cultural country and we celebrate an Eistedfodd once a year. We are not all called gweneth or daffydd. the one downside of wales is that we do have a lot of rain during winter, yet spring time is beautiful with daffodils sprouting and baby lambs roaming the fields. definitly a place to visit!

I've never quite understood why the English think that all welsh people are 'sheep shaggers'. The most densly populated areas in wales (Newport, Cardiff, Swansea, and the rest of south wales) take the piss out of the other, 'sheep-shagging' areas of wales, just as much as the English do. However, it is just a JOKE! I think I can quite safely assume that no one in wales shags sheep (Unless they're into beastiality) lol :P
And as for all that crap about English/ Welsh rivalry in sport: It's just a fuckin' game! At the end of the day, being welsh, i'm bound to support wales; Ireland and scotland respectively, coz the smaller countries in the UK are bound to 'gang up' against the largest country.
But I mean, a lot've my relatives have moved to England; I have a house in Devon and spend a lot've time there. The only difference between me, and the English, as far as I'm concerned, is the accent. And as for all the rubbish that's been said about cardiff (and the violence that's been associated with it); all towns/cities have rough areas. However, we (the welsh), despise the minority of welsh people, who give this stunning and inviting country, the reputation of one that is full of aggressive; violent, 'hooligans'. (Especially considering the fact that it is the English football team, millwall, not cardiff city, who are renowned for having the most violent fan club!)
Anyway, despite all my rambling, my main point is that wales, (especially south wales), is no different to England, and I can't understand why we are stereotyped as being 'sheep shaggers'. We have the most amazing countryside; (My university is situated right next to the Gower, which has been officially designated as an 'area of outstanding natural beauty'). And even though the welsh language is undeniably 'useless' abroad, it is a fuckin' awsum language to be given the opportunity to learn. Wales, despite being small, is a country full of talent and natural beauty and I think it is impossible for anyone to argue otherwise. That is why I get so annoyed at foreigners (the Americans in particular); calling the UK 'England' and not Great Britain. Because, I belive that the UK (all four members included) is a great country. And I think it's fair to assume that we are all united in our pride and patriotism at being British. We all know that bigger is not necessarily better (the USA probably the best example of that :P lol). Despite being small, we are a fuckin GREAT country and as far as I'm concerned we should stick our fingers up to anyone who trys to tell us otherwise :)! Luv all u Brits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Often confused to 'Eden' or 'Heaven on Earth', Wales is nothing short of perfection. Located, and widly recognised as the 'Diamond in the British Isles', Wales boasts the most outstanding picturesque landscapes and areas of amazing natural beauty in the Northern Hemisphere. It's people, known as the Welsh, are among the friendliest and approachable on Earth, proudly bearing the oldest language in Europe, accompanied by a loveable accent.
"God created the heaven and the earth, modelled on the perfection that is Wales, he then proceded to incarnate himself in the form and guise of Mike Ruddock, posing as a Rugby coach. Thus leading Wales to a magnificent Grand Slam."

Wales, a country inhabited by people who are the brothers and sisters of Breton people (from Brittany, west OF France) and Cornish people (from Cornwall, west OF England).
What a chance to spend time there and meet some guys who are different enough so not as to have to waste time to differentiate, and similar enough to not feel hate for them.
