Top Ten Most Stereotyped Countries
If I may say so, there are many stereotypes about other countries out there. But who suffers the most from it?
The United States of America, or the U.S.A. for short, is a federal republic composed of 50 states, 48 of them are contiguous states. There are two other states, Alaska and Hawaii, which are north and south of the contiguous states, respectively. The United States declared its independence from the ...read more. I love how some Europeans, not all, but some, like to get all mad at us for stereotyping other countries so much. They think we think all Canadians live in igloos, I have yet to meet an American who thinks this, they think we have no respect for other countries, 100% UNTRUE, only President Cheeto lacks respect. After they are done getting angry at us for stereotyping other countries, they then proceed to stereotype us as fat, lazy, uneducated people. I am rather skinny, work out & smart & I'm American, do I defy the beliefs? Maybe some of them should visit America someday & realize that they were dead wrong all the time.
Because apparently my friends are fat, talentless, and stupid people, I am a fat, talentless, and stupid person, my parents are fat, talentless, and stupid people, and my teachers are fat, talentless, and stupid people. It's not true. I know about the existence of other nations. None of my friends really count as fat, and aren't even close to stupid or talentless. I know about world affairs-about Canada, about Sweden, about Liechtenstein. I'm not a blundering ignorant idiot, and random Americans that are blundering ignorant idiots don't represent me.
Anybody who stereotype the United States are massive idiots, people who do often speak OUR language (English). They also use American websites such as Google, and YouTube (owned by Google). Any scum who stereotype us have no right to use our products.
Another stereotype that is very offensive towards Americans is that their very racist, which is NOT TRUE, because not all Americans are racist. Some of them are very nice, helpful and friendly. Plus, if they were racist, it's their own opinion.
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly shortened to United Kingdom, UK or Britain is a Sovereign State located of the Northwestern coast of Europe. It is a Parliamentary Constitutional Monarchy currently lead by Monarch Queen Elizabeth II and its current prime minister is ...read more. Broken (ok I have got 1 broken) yellow teeth, needing fillings, false teeth. Posh, drinking tea. (My fave hot drink is coffee), eating crumpets (I have cereal, pancakes more nowadays), British Breakfast - I hate beans, Eeeew black pudding. Speak the Queens-English properly. HA! When I speak fast I say math instead of maths.
American's mind: *snorting laugh* I'll get the crumpets ready, Jeeves boil the kettle if you would not mind me asking.
Reality (Mainly East London): You alright geezer? Yea me an all. // Rugby's on soon, I'll be up the pub watching it.
I'm sorry P.W, I can't agree. I DO enjoy afternoon tea, hot buttered crumpets for breakfast and everything else that is quintessentially British. Sorry, my friend.
And I like tea and a Sunday Roast too, and anything British too (that isn't crumpets or eggs, which taste like fried mucus), but not ALL THE TIME! I like variety!
France, officially the French Republic, is a sovereign state comprising territory in western Europe and several overseas regions and territories. The European part of France, called metropolitan France, extends from the Mediterranean Sea to the English Channel and the North Sea, and from the Rhine to ...read more. Yes, French bashing is a national sport of certain countries, they are pure stereotypes which continue despite their complete inaccuracy.
French people also get stereotyped for eating frogs leg and snails.
France beats them all with the French bashing.
Not all French people are romantic.
China, officially the People's Republic of China, is a sovereign state in East Asia. It is the world's most populous state, with a population of over 1.388 billion. It was established in 1949 by Chairman Mao, the president of the communist party. Its capital is Beijing. The major cities are Shanghai, ...read more. Everyone is so ignorant and assumes all Asians are Chinese. Everyone makes fun of our language. Everyone hates Chinese for eating dogs even though Americans eat pigs. I'm not saying that it is aceptable to eat dogs, but people should stop critizizing one another when they have their own similar problems.
...Wow... To that user who wrote mean jokes about Chinese people. Some Chinese people are quite nice, some not.
I'm Chinese and I suck at driving, I'm very rude to others and I'm good at maths. (Jokes) I suck at maths!
They say that they are afraid of black people, are good at math, eat dogs, etc...
Australia, officially known as the Commonwealth of Australia, is a country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands. Australia has a very warm climate and is very dry. The country's official language is English. The silly thing is that most of the stereotypes come from the least heavily populated part of the country. A lot of us are city dwellers and suburbanites who have never seen a koala outside of a zoo or TV/Film.
I shouldn't be so offended by this ( because I'm American not Australian) but I hate Australian stereotypes. Everyone thinks Australia is purely put a island filled with spiders but there's more to it ( also is it normal to say mate after every sentence in Australia, because that what everyone I know does when the do a impression of Australia)
Guys, even though Australia is recognized as the exotic and isolated country of kangaroos, the facts show us that this amazing land indeed is incredibly developed and has some of the most liveable cities in the planet, such like Melbourne and Sydney.
I have never seen a kangaroo in my life and more people die falling out of beds rather than being killed my dangerous animals.
Canada is a country in North America that is next to the United States, and it's the 2nd largest country in the world by area (size is 9.985 million km²). This country has 10 provinces, and 3 territories. Canada became a dominion on July 1, 1867. Its 10 provinces are: Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec, ...read more. I don't know why Americans appear to be so paranoid about Canada. They both have similarities and differences, but not such that they can be enemies.
Side note: America does not hate Canada. And I don't think they do, nor do I hate either of them. That's another one of many deceitful American stereotypes.
Well not all of them are nice, in fact, some of them are very mean to the United States. We are allies, we should be friends.
Canada likes Maple Syrup, eh? Canada likes hockey, eh? Canadians always say "eh" all the time, eh?
Canada... Brr... Feel like I'm going to freeze to death.
Russia, known as the "Russian Federation", was formed on Dec 25, 1991. It is located mainly in Asia. The capital and largest city is Moscow, followed by Saint Petersburg in terms of population. The country primarily speaks Russian, a Slavic language. My name is Ivan, my parents Ivan and Ivana are proud Soviet Russians, we ride bears every day to get to our jobs in the uranium and coal mines and we can't miss a day, because... you know... GULAG. We use Ak-47 to kill Americans and Iranians that we meet.
Glory to Soviet Russia! Glory to Vodka!
Yes, Russian Ivan will eat your children's at night, Putin is watching!
Ok, that is funny, I like this stereotypes, but in real, they are the same people as over.
Well to be honest, that is correct.
Mexico, officially the United Mexican States, is a federal republic located in North America. The country is located between the U.S. and Central America, and is known for its Pacific and Gulf of Mexico beaches and its diverse landscape of mountains, deserts, and jungles. I'm German living in Mexico and when I came here my whole family started telling me: be careful it's dangerous! Seriously I have never been assaulted or kidnapped. Everyone is so kind and not dangerous at all!
I don't even like beans and everyone tells me "Come to the shade, you're paler than a cloud." And for Heaven's sake, we don't steal your jobs! It's just you that refuse them.
I am Mexican: My whole family is super pale and we don't live in a pueblito. We actually have amazing schools in here.
Often stereotypes as illegal aliens who eat tacos.
Germany was formally united in 1871 under the initiative of Bismarck with King Wilhelm of Prussia as emperor. The previous 'Holy Roman Empire', basically a continuation of the empire of Charlemagne/Karl der Grosse was dissolved in 1806. ...read more. Americans are still stupid enough to think that Germans are still Nazis, because it seems as if they are still stuck in the 1940's. Hell, more Americans are Nazis than Germans are. I'd even go as far to say that there are NO Germans Nazis. Let me tell you, the US is pathetic.
It is all Hitler's fault for making Germans look bad by his hatred towards Jews and Nazi's killing them. Not all Germans worship Hitler and they don't kill Jews and anyone (other than Jews) at all.
Its funny how people from Germany try to justify the fact that they are wrongfully accused of being Nazi and racist with only argument that "US is pathetic" :p. They have self-irony, I give them that :P
France is no longer Napoleonic, and Russia is no longer Soviet, so why does everyone say that Germany is Nazi? Stuck in 1939? Move on. And look at Germany now.
India, officially the Republic of India, is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-most populous country (with over 1.2 billion people), and the most populous democracy in the world. Its capital is New Delhi.

England, previously the Kingdom of England, is a constituent country of the United Kingdom along with Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. ...read more. England, Great Britain or UK?

Formed in 1916 after the Easter uprising, Ireland is a small country with a population of roughly 5 million. No we don't eat potatoes all the time...we don't have lucky charms...we don't sound like leprechauns on acid and we are not all drunk off our heads...and we all don't hate the British
Saudi Arabia, officially known as the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, is an Arab state in Western Asia (Middle East) constituting the bulk of the Arabian Peninsula.

Jamaica great because of Bob Marley and reggae.
