America has been at war with someone or other pretty much non-stop since independance

As have the UK - But we have been doing it longer

Scotland mostly just has wars with itself and doesn't have time for away fixtures.

Not sure where you are from but there is a pretty good chance that your country has been at war for at least half your life.
