I'm quite shocked that someone on HN would overlook the absurdly disproportionate to their population of the contributions of the Nordic and Scandinavian countries to the open source ecosystem.

And, let's take a stronger look at the UK, for example. Can you name a few people who were on the "dole"? I can start with J. K. Rowling and Noel Gallagher, to start.

Any data about overall artistic / entrepreneurial output comparing Scandinavian countries vs others? Asking genuinely.
