Norway?
People think of us as self-centered arseholes, which in most cases would be true.
We're also arrogant, but the thing most people outside Scandinavia associate us with is vikings, fish, metal and skiing.
And blondes, both Sweden and Norway are known for the fact that every single inhabitant in the country is a hot blonde girl.

Well acording to popular mythos in the area of England I live the entire population can survive artic conditions by simply wearing a T shirt and jeans.
Maryland: (Appearantly)The Canada of the USA: Unimportant and Boring, but Liberal and with good Natural Beauty. Also, we have a witch

According to modern culture,as a fruit fly is flying around my room,I am jury-rigging a white flag and surrendering to this insectoïd threat! menace! invasion!
I'll be in my room,sipping on wine while smoking and eating cheese,helpless,until the USA and UK whip out the fly swatters and save me.
With that in mind,anyone with more than 2 brain cells can guess in what country I live in.
As for the region,we are all drunks that enjoy our culture and celebrate it multiple times a year.Also,it rains so much we are 100% waterproof.
Go Britanny,woo!

Well Scotland is sometimes remembered for birthing some of the finest minds in science, literature, philosophy, music and art...
Usually remembered as the place where people wear tartan, eat haggis and play bagpipes.
In truth, lots of Canterbury wearing thugs stabbing weaker people for the small change in their pocket. And old drunks.

Not in Denmark.. Here we believe you are stupid and/or weak because Polish criminals often comes here to steal everything that ain't chained downAnarchy In Detroit said:
.. But not everyone who come here does so to steal.. Some also come here and force Danes out of their jobs, as they are, because of EU regulations, able to work way cheaper than Danish workers. D-:
As an American I think the "world police" analogy fits us perfectly. That is to say that everyone hates us, until something goes wrong, or they need us, then everyone wants to be considered our friend and ally despite all the scorn and insults. It seems that we're viewed with dislike due to "interferance", or whined about because we aren't doing enough.
It's sort of like a cop, you want him to let you break the laws constantly for your conveinence and always hope he's somewhere else, but then when you need one the situation changes entirely, but you still complain about them because suddenly the police aren't enforcing the laws vigorously enough.
I'm from Connecticut, and we're generally viewed as being affluent, well educated, and overly stuck up. Connecitcut being a popular "origin state" for snooty rich kids. Something which of course overlooks the South Eastern part of the state, how liberal the state is (look at which way we go during federal elections), and numerous other factions.
Due to still having some very rural areas, this is also where the "quiet new england towns" that are going to face some massive crisis are frequently placed. Connecticut is part of what some people call "Lovecraft Country" as well, although typically it's a stylistic thing since Lovecraft himself preferred Massachusets to Connecticut as a major setting.
Generally overlooked in favor of Rednecks and Hillbillies, the East Coast (including Connecticut) has it's own equvilent stereotype in "Swamp Yankees".

well since i come from cyprus its mainly the driving that comes to mind. in total i have seen villages with shotgun pellets through them, motorbikes doing wheelies down a motorway. people on motorbikes not wearing any leather or anything on their upper half of their body not even a helmet on the motorway and people driving goats over a motorway flyover
there was also a case in the capitol city of cyprus called nicosia where they put up traffic cams and within the first few months they had so many traffic offences that the police couldnt process them all so when the public asked them to take down the cams they did.
also the phrase that it will be done but tommorow will never come is a common one

Nah, we just think most Americans are dumb, intolerable, ignorant racists with a superiority complex but again these are just stereotypes. We'd be happy if you'd move up here. Hope you like hockey and maple syrup. (I actually don't care much for hockey..)TheTaco007 said:
