US - You're huge, you're home, and your natural wonders are stupendous. All your qualities, good and bad, are dialed up to eleven. You have wonderful ideals, live up to them better. Last, but hardly least, jazz.
This, hilariously, is the best statement I've ever read that sums up my country. When we do shit, we go hard. Democracy for one country? Hell, lets give democracy to all! Spying on another country? Nah, let's spy on EVERYONE, including ourselves! Just give our government a task to fulfill and shit will get done. The problem is making sure we can keep them occupied with good causes before they get bored and start experimenting (that's when stuff goes bad).

AUS - I like your accents. And the animals that live there are awesome. Not exactly a fan of how nutty you guys can get sometimes with random things! But it's all good in the end.

Canada - My neighbors who are awesome. Always met super nice Canadians and even the few I've met who lived horrible lives always seemed to want to help others. I know it's a sterotype, but seriously, what the hell, every single one I've met is kind regardless how their lives are going. Thanks for helping us in our crazy wars over the years, too. Buddies forevers <3

England - Love the amusing culture and for being cynical like me.

UK - Thanks for keeping England in line whenever they start acting up! Also, love the Irish culture. And the women. Oh yes.

Russia - Thanks for giving us a run for our money from the 1950's till the 1990's. You have to respect the hell out of a worthy opponent that can keep you scared shitless for 40 years straight. Also, your military are some of the most badass I've ever seen, and your language is so epic that I'm studying it now! &#1091;&#1088;&#1072;!

Can I use this as a pick-up line?

"Hey gurl, you got some diverse geography."
Oh my. All of the ways you could use that..

CRAP. HIDE.
BECAUSE YOU COMMENT ON A GIRL'S GEOGRAPHY.

The Netherlands,

Hey you're cool. I've a few friends over there and they show and tell me so many nice things about you. I bet the people with pollen allergies who live there absolutely detest you when spring rolls around, given all of the tulips. Orange is a nice color for a country btw. Your queen is pretty nice too. And your education system makes me sad. Apparently your government gives your students free money to study and doesn't ask for any of it bacK? And such quality education at cheap costs! You're great. You have a nice Game Development school too. I'm supah jellies.

USA: I do rather like a bit of your crime drama. It's an excellent complement to the local (UK) flavour

Canada: I consider you guys to be the sensible friend for those times when the US is being... not so sensible. My number 1 "if you had to move abroad..." destination

Netherlands: I can't think of a single more wise and mature country in the whole world

Germany: when one of your denizens' defining characteristics is being polite and not wanting to offend people, you're doing something right

Italy: you guys are fun, you're like that crazy friend who brightens up your life

Switzerland: you do not fuck with this country (in a good sense of the trait)

I really Canada's vast nature and how nice people are there, i mean really they are it's mind boggling. And let's not forget they also get my kuddo's for adopting the metric system!
I've seen pictures of Canada's rain forests. It looks like something right out of a fantasy novel.

And oh is that a good thing. I want to go there. Quite very badly.

Bringing a new country into this..

New Zealand,
My god, you are beautiful and vast and you've got some interesting people there. I think, if ever there was a phrase of "Backpacking in.." it should be "Backpacking in New Zealand". I mean, there's a reason why so many major movies are shot all over your body parts. There's no end to the diverse geography you've got.
I am convinced the the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings movies are just an advanced tourist advertisement paid for by the New Zealand government.

United States: You guys invented Star Trek and Game of Thrones, both the TV show and the book series. So that's pretty tits.

Japan: Erm... you make the most interesting porn? I guess? Also there's the fact that you're so much ludicrously more advanced than just about everyone.

New Zealand: You're like... Australia's Canada, a sleek, better functioning version of a bigger nation. We're still struggling with the idea of gay marriage while you guys have had it for ages.

Mexico: You get a bad rep, but I've known a lot of awesome people from Mexico. Also I have it on good authority that our attempt to replicate your food are complete and utter failures.

India: Pretty much the exact same thing as Mexico. India cops a lot of hate from Australia because it's where a lot of jobs are outsourced to, but I've worked side by side with Indians and they knew a heck of a lot more about the industry than me. They also work a lot harder than us, they really dive into their work with a passion and aren't just there for a paycheck.

Italy and France, love the architecture and particular the landmarks in their capitals. I been to Paris so far and loved it, hoping to get to Rome one year.
USA you and your food, I watched my fair share of Man v Food and it has tempted me to have a fly over. XD
Canada, seems like a great place to visit.

Seems every where I think is nice I want to visit.

Japan, you are absolutely batshit fucking insane. But I happen to like that.

I don't know any other country that sells ice cream flavours like pit viper, octopus and freakin' viagra.

Spain: You must have the patience of saints for putting up with all our horrible tourists. I promise we're not all like that! Also, paella is delicious.

Austria has a wonderful living standard.

Britain has me in it. I wish I had me in me. That's just completely and utterly amazing.

Slovakia has.... eh... erm... surprisingly good pizza? Better than Italy, in fact. Not that anyone ever noticed that apart from myself. But let me tell, you, I've eaten pizza in Italy, Austria, Germany, Croatia, US and the UK and none of them compare.

America,
You're so large every state is different and that's interesting. Your people are polite, enthusiastic and love us Brits which I find amusing. You have nice scenery and apparently very reasonably priced stuff. You can keep your chocolate though *retch*
That's interesting that more than one person has commented on our chocolate. Is it all kinds that is nasty, including our "gourmet" brands like Ghirardelli, or just the Hershey's milk chocolate-type stuff? And, what is wrong with it? Taste, texture?

OT: I've never been to another country, so I can't really say anything from personal knowledge. However, I can say that New Zealand looks gorgeous.

In both Germany, the United States, and Britain, I really like the industrial music scene. There's a lot of interesting and creative music coming from these countries in this genre. There's definitely a lot more you're going to find than Rammstein or Marilyn Manson. Just lately I've been listening to Janus which is out of Germany, which is some really fascinating and wonderful music.
I agree about the industrial music, especially industrial metal and germany, who has the best bands, like Rammstein, Oomph, Eisbrecher and Megaherz. I don't know if I've heard Janus before.

I really like how in countries like Germany, Sweden, and Finland, just to name a few, women and sexual minorities have such a full breadth of rights and often respect. I feel like in the United States are catching up in that regard. Germany and Sweden seem like some of the best places in the world to live if you are transgender, or homosexual. Or something similar.

And that's just a few things I like about various countries. I think it is time you give you all a turn.
There's actually quite a lot of hate here too. I don't know what other countries are like exactly, so maybe women, transgenders and homosexuals do have it easier here. Still, I think it could be better than it is. Gay is a common insult, and whore is too common too. >_>

OT:

I like Japan's culture. People talk a lot about anime, and music, but they have a pretty interesting past and heritage too. I like both. I know the country's conformist.

Australia seems like one of the coolest countries. Some of the people that I've talked with online and gotten along with the best has been australian. They have the badass nature aspect where most animals are deadly too.

I already mentioned Germany's music. They have some awesome music.

There's a lot of things I don't like about my country, but there's like two things which I can be proud of, and that is that we have a lot of good music, and that TPB started here.

America: If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all!
(Thus by saying something, I'm clearly implying it's nice to say!)
Canada/America: One time as a kid growing up in Wisconsin I fell asleep in a car and woke up in Canada and thought it was still Wisconsin but and I quote "The strangers where nicers." Plural on the nicer intended. I suppose that's nice, I'm sorry if it offended anyone lol.
Wow, I didn't mean to do that I'm...
Yeah, I swear I wasn't trying to do it. But I'm laughing so hard I feel like leaving it.
Sounds like you're turning into a Canadian.

OT:
America: Home to some of my best internet friends. And a good portion of very good authors.
China: You have very nice people... just not in charge.
Japan: ILU u crazy little shit
Australia: Steve Irwin! (RIP)

Britain: I was very pleased to learn that most Brits, even in London, don't talk in Received pronunciation (BBC/Queen's English), which I find to be obnoxious as hell. Cockney and various other UK/Irish accents are much more palatable.

Germany: You have no shortage of awesome military museums. And everything else is pretty nice too.
