I don't know enough about other countries through personal experience to gauge most of them properly.

I'll try anyway.

Canada Like - Beaver tails, Poutine, Bioware and others, hubby's family is mostly here, generally friendly people.
Dislike - Upper governmental management getting overpaid, some fraud in geniunely useful programs could be rooted out quicker than it is.

USA Like - Hilariously disturbing political discourse, Various tech/gaming companies, Some of hubby's family came from here, generally OK people.
Dislike - Plainly disturbing political discourse, unintentional assistance of slaughter in Cambodia by Khmer Rouge (possibly was intentional by certain politicians in the know, but we'll never know), not much else (fairly good country).

China Like - Cheap stuff that breaks fast, some movies, cultural impact.
Dislike - Cheap stuff that breaks fast, non-enforcement of the myriad regulations they have for manufacturing, constant cases of mass poisoned/tainted food products, constant cases of recalled products meant for distribution elsewhere due to containing poison (like Cadmium), Assisting in slaughter of Cambodia, mass censorship, looking down at all other Asians.

Japan Like - Anime, Games, sushi, sashimi, yaki anything, part of the family I married into.
Dislike - Unfortunate radiation leak, Looking down at all other Asians.

Cambodia Like - Some of my family comes from here.
Dislike - Mass murder, mass stupidity, looking down at most other Asians (except worshipping white skinned Chinese, Koreans and Japanese).

Thailand Like - Some of my family comes from here.
Dislike - Generally looks down on other asians... and themselves as well (their "miss Thailand" is always a half asian).

I might think of more later but, that's all for now (this post crafted in notepad over several hours due to usual housework and 2 little attention grabbing children).

From Shyranis's post I have learned that almost every Asian country looks down on every other Asian country.

And it's sadly true.

That's why there will never be a unified asia.

Korea Like - Kpop, some movies, kimchi.
Dislike - Self hatred to the point they thank relatives who call them ugly and buy plastic surgery as a birthday present for them (several Koreans had confirmed this for me), looking down on all other asians.

North Korea (in a addition to Korea in general) Like - not sure.
Dislike - Chinese style censorship cranked to 11, crazy dictators, looking down on all Asians (except their glorious leader of course)

England Like - Classic literature, Monty Python.
Dislike - My country being stuck with the bill for the multi-Billion Royal wedding for two rich people who can afford it themselves easily.

germany
like - opera, museums, culture
dont like - turkish parts and neo nazis


Heehe I'd almost be funny if it'd wasn't true. In all fairness it's not neccesarily the turkish (eventhough they're the most popular part of it at times) it's migrants in general and our abysmal policy when it comes to dealing with them.

I hate opera. It's so damn noisy. Except the web browser. The web browser is okay.
