Many ways, one which comes to mind:

=COUNTIF(RANGE,"England")/COUNTA(RANGE)

where RANGE would be the list range, e.g. A2:A30, you can make this go beyond the length of your list. COUNTIF will count all the cells with "ENGLAND", COUNTA will count all cells which are not empty.

Other ways off top of my head would be SUMPRODUCT or a Pivot Table (not a fan personally)
