SQL Server orderby with some fixed values

I came across a problem when we want to set the default language to English in a dropdown list. Such as:

Chinese

Danish

English

German

Japanese

Swedish

We want the English come to the first, and the rest follows That’s:

English    //go to first

Chinese

Danish

German

Japanese

Swedish

 

We can do this by uniting the two SQL result sets:

select * from country where lang='English'

union

select * from country where lang<>'English'
