Sure - in Denmark they’re called “bonderøv” - literally, “farmer butts.”

Farmer butts generally come from areas outside the big cities of Copenhagen, Aarhus and Odense, and often from Jutland, the large part of Denmark that is attached to Germany.

They provide the majority of members of the Danish military and police forces, and are generally quite fond of the Danish Royal Family. They often marry young - even in 2017 - and have two to three children very quickly. Their favorite political party is “Venstre”, a mildly conservative party. Some even enjoy U.S. country music.

“Farmer butts” grow the food that keeps Denmark fed and the food exports that keep the country solvent while it swans around acting like a moral authority on the international stage.

For their trouble, they and their “farmer butt” accents when speaking Danish are mercilessly mocked by the Copenhagen elite.
