On Denmark's Homogenity.

One of the things that I have really started to notice/dislike about Copenhagen it its homogenity and lack of a diverse ethnic population. One of my favorite things about cities is their diversity and their lots of cheap ethnic food. While there are more immigrants in Copenhagen than the rest of Denmark in general, there is not a lot of diversity in the immigrants and most are from Turkey or the Middle East and while there is Schwarma (known as Kebap in Germany/Austria) which is Turkish, that is pretty much the only cheap ethnic food.
On this same idea, one of the reasons I liked London so much was its incredible diversity and its huge (and really good) range of ethnic food. After having lived in Copenhagen for 3 months now, I think the lack of diversity and the lack of good ethnic food options would really start to bug me if I lived here for longer. That being said, I think Denmark's homogenity is a huge reason why it was able to develop into the liberal, progressive and social welfare state that it did. Because Denmark has historically been so ethnically homogenous, no one had to prove that they were Danish and so the Danes were able to concentrate on economic growth and social liberalization. Also, because everyone was ethnic dane, there was a "tribe" mentality which was a huge factor towards the development of Denmark's universal welfare state.
