I don't think any particular nation produces people with the best sense of humor. Everybody just has different senses of humor. I'm white, and I'll hear my black friends laugh about something that has to do with being black, and I just won't get it :( And then they try and explain to me a bit, but then they just laugh and give up...

But interesting question, though...

I would say America, but our comedy and humor comes from all over. The Irish, yes, of course, (and despite what somebody else said) the Jewish people, Black people, etc. all have great humor. I grew up not realizing the British were funny, you know, stiff upper lip and all that.

I imagine there is no where in the world without some kind of humor. OK, maybe the Taliban aren't a barrel of laughs but most nationalities and ethnic groups can be funny.

Depends what you're into. Toilet humor? America. Try Dane Cook or Chris Rock.

That's so subjective it's a silly question, people are going to like their own country's humour generally because that's where they grew up and shared the community's humour.
