Japanese — punctual to the minute, painfully polite, and famous for spotless trains that run on time no matter what.

►

German — blunt, no small talk, and allergic to inefficiency. If a train is two minutes late, someone is filing a complaint.

►

Italian — loud, passionate, and treats every meal like a family reunion. Talking with their hands isn't optional.

►

British — self-deprecating humor, obsessed with the weather, and will form an orderly queue for literally anything.

►

American — loud, relentlessly friendly with strangers, and will strike up a full conversation with whoever's next to them in line.
