Nationalised oil probably helps too
We don't have oil and we have the same in Denmark. I have 7 weeks paid vacation, and of course free healthcare and education, etc.
Can I come over?
You will need to learn the language if you want to stay for longer (like you should). Also, bring your friends and family, it's not easy making new ones.
No, it is pretty standard European fare.

Bribery.
