We can consider the countries that keep most of the elements of the nerd culture, the countries where a large share of the people like the nerd culture.

Celtic and norse paganism are much connected to the nerd culture because they are a great source for phantasy books and RPG. Heavy metal is also a part of the nerd culture. Anime and video games too.

I put the UK countries separate because they can be nerd at different levels.

South Korea, just because of the apparent rise and mainstreaming of red pill, misogynistic sentiments.

Iceland may be the best candidate on a per capita basis for western (non-Asian) nerd culture. South Korea is known for their esports scene, and Japan is the home of anime, although anime to me is more "geek" than "nerd".

Is that how you define nerdom? Lame.
