I was born in Brazil, and for some reason there's way too much scat porn being made there. 

I mean, 2 girls 1 cup was even made there.

I'm from the UK, and the main things are football hooliganism, antisocial behaviour and our mostly embarrassing Royal family.

I won't say our massive debts because we deserve that in my opinion.
It's a miracle the country still exists after 200 years of absolutely terrible management.
So I will say the Zorba dance and song because it's a pop culture invention and not representative of our musical traditions.

Poland:

Excluding the stereotypes, there is one-two things for which we are known [can't say as it is for Poland or just rather European countries at all] for which I think I wouldn't like to be known for [at least that's what I can find in the internet] which is the "Stare" and "Poker Face", to explain it from what I've read:

It seems to be weird/non normal when you are in public/pass by someone and you're doing a stare/eye-contact/long eye-contact which I always thought to be completely normal and it seems to be not normal from what I can read in the internet and the Poker Face is that in public when you meet or cross by strangers we have just neutral face, we are not smiling, laughing to strangers or showing any emotions which seems to be weird and a surprise, form what I've read it is the biggest surprise for people across the ocean from Usa.

Pretty much all the stereotypes, to be honest. People would be often prejudiced against you simply because of the region you are from since they think you are either: a drug/human trafficker, an economic immigrant there to steal their jobs/wives/husbands/whatever, or a "former" KGB there to threaten their national security, and on and on.

Sometimes I feel blessed that people here have zero idea of geography and think my country is a part of the USA, lol.

Alcoholism and suicide. Don't get me wrong, those are major issues that should be voiced and dealt with. Situation however isn't as bad as it was in the 90's, and has been changing in positive way.

We have many more qualities than just a history of a crazy dictator, for example the charming trait of every German to start every small talk with "what a shitty weather, right?"

I guess super model level pretty women, the sea/beaches, "traditional" food and football.

Tourists romanticize it way too much in general. Of course you're supposed to have fun on vacation and not check depressing statistics of the country you're visting or whatever, but "lets enjoy our trip" too often turns into complete lack of respect and arrogance.

Often those exact things that we're "known for" are tourist bait and made specifically for them, whereas I doubt we'd get half as much tourists as we get now if they knew what it's actually like in here.

China: The legacy of the Opium Wars that killed way too many families in southern China because of the British merchantile strategy and how it changed the demographics so significantly there. Still has a negative impact in the 21st century.

Canada: Residential schools run by Christian groups that murdered the First Nation people. Lowkey mistreatment of French-speaking people by English-speaking people. Having a monarchy despite Canadians really don't care about the royal family in the Buckingham Palace. A very antiquated legal system (common law) that still has religious undertone and could be abused by American businesses, except in Quebec since it's a whole different story. Mistreatment of Muslims and Sikhs.

durante a minha vida no brasil eu nunca vi ou escutei falar sobre scat - nem sei direito o q significa, mas deve ser relacionado com poop.
a unica excecao seria 2 girls one cup, que assumi foi um video produzido em outro pais (como o titulo e en ingles e nao portugues)

as for Brazil, crimes, favela, drug cartels, corruption.
You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/.
The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish.
Show your support to your favorite artist if you can!
ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name.

I never rode a moose to school I swear, I also feel cold as any other human being, Canadians are not superhumans we deal with the cold by layering up and staying indoors most of the time. 
And lastly, Canada is not snowy and cold year-round, Unless you live in Nunavut or some northern hamlet we do have summers and they can get quite hot sometimes because of humidity.

If you go down the scat rabbit hole, you will find more and more Brazilian produced scat videos. 
Not the ameturs one, but like full on professional stuff.

All the terrible stuff our second king and country did in Congo and Rwanda back in the day. That's a huge blemish in our history books.

As for modern stuff, I dunno. Don't think Belgium's really famous aside from chocolate, beer and waffles.

Uh, genocide denial? Very unfortunate rep but it's not ungrounded.

@LoveYourEyes

I was happy with the cuisine as I was there! Especially the pastries have always been very good. For the savory stuff, I guess it's a little mild? Thüringer Klöße felt like home 🥲

@elgatosaika

I liked pierogi, why is that bad though lol. I think the most unfortunate stereotype would be the association with breaking into cars.

On the good side, there's winged hussars which is good military design! And maybe Copernicus? I know there's some debate around who gets to claim him.

@Auron_ I'm not that much into eating, and local cuisine looks just terrible from aesthetics point. Same as Italian, praised by many. I would rather watch French food, since I'm more watching than eating. On the other hand, we have some exceptional wines, underestimated by many.

Meatballs and beautiful blue eyed blond girls.

First of meatballs in ancient time stems from Rome and ancient Persia then in more modern time it´s more an Itlanian thing. But I guess when my shitty ass country has 0 taste buds to the point the most used spices are salt and maybe pepper I guess meatball is the only thing we can say hey we are not that useless.

But I will tell you if your from the US or France or Italy or Spain your meatballs are 100 times better than Swedish ones because real Swedish meatballs are made with minced meat of cow or a mix of cow and bit and 0 spices.


Also people need to get out of their heads that Sweden is full of blond blue eyed girls majority of girls are brunets and full of them self and evil as hell. I rather die single than date a Swedish girl.


Also Pengiuns and polar bear are not located in Sweden and yes I met some people who believe that.


And I will tell you this no Sweden is not a wonderfull country it´s a shit hole with shitty people that are even scared of their own damn shadow if you even try to ask a random Swed what time it is they will look at you like you asked if you could murder them.

Sweden is horrible so stay the heck away if your smart.
