      As far as I know Southern Europe does have a siesta culture. Northern Europe however does not, at least not the parts I have been.

        Siesta is a Spanish word and in Europe, a midday nap/siesta is most commonly associated with Spain AFAIK.

        I would guess part of it would be tied to the history of the industrial revolution starting jn England and Germany but probably not the whole story
