I'd just like to say that, I dunno about other countries, but for America in particular, trying to list the traits of the entire nation (outside of the occasional "'murica" joke) is nearly impossible, and overall just not such a great idea. We have 50 states here (more if you wanna count the various territories and such as states) and each of them, or at least their general areas, are almost like their own countries as it is. I mean, the stereotype is that we're all a bunch of gun-toting, fat, racist, uber-patriotic loudmouths, but that's mainly just Texas (and the South in general). Then we have California, a bunch of tech-wise, uber-liberal yuppies who think that they're the only state that exists. And over on the East, we have the notoriously rude New Yorkers/New Jersey folks who are so accustomed to living in crowded cities that they've lost all shreds of humanity. Lastly, we have the north, such as Michigan and Minnesota and whatnot, where we're really not sure what's going on, but it's so cold, we're afraid to send anybody up to check and just decided to hope they're still alive (if they're not, we give them to Canada and pretend nothing happened). So, I'm just saying, maybe it's better to do it by region rather than by overall country.
