What is your countries stereotypes? What is it known for?
I'm not entirely sure for one about Sytarenne.
 
Stereotypes are for the most part made externally, so better to ask what others' stereotypes of you are. Right now I'm on the train so I can't say much; I get into detail later. The Kannexan's idealized self image is of a crafty yet loyal trooper of the Reich. Kannexans are disciplined, faithful, and honorable. The typical Kannexan is biracial, a mix of white, brown, and black, and piously Christian. Obviously the self ideal varies along the political spectrums; nationalists see the ideal Kannexan as a loyal soldier and liberals see the Kannexan as a lover of freedom and democracy.
 
-Syrixian stereotypes: update 2-

Ceretis: WE WUB YOU!!!

Kannex: A good version of WWI Germany on steroids

Rhuvanland: Syrixia and Kannex's little sister

True Sebland: Medieval nerds who like absolute monarchy

Sadakoyama: Soulless robots

Eumenor: The Canada of TNP. Sorry, eh?

Andulus: The angry conservative gramma who only cares about the "Way"

McMasterdonia: Actually really kind people.

Plembobria: Hyper-bored people who still don't care about the outside world.

Cronaal: People with lots of potential who don't use it.

Kalti- The culture kings

Guslantis- People who worship guinea pigs and are somehow, unbelievably still sane

Nebula- MASH THAT DIRTY RED PINKO SCUM! KICK 'EM IN THE TEETH WHERE IT HURTS! KILL! KILL!!! FILTHY COMMIES!!! I HATE 'EM, I HATE 'EM! AAAAAAAAHHHHH!!! AAAAAAAAHHHH!!! KILL THEM ALL! WIPE THE RED SCUM OUT! SHOVE 'EM OFF THE FACE OF EVE! AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!
 
Syrixia: Former nice giraffes. Have gone on a warmongering power trip in wanting to start a world war.

Kannex: Germany on steroids, used to be friendly (might be still). Seems to have taken the same pill as Syrixia and gone on a warmongering power trip in wanting to start a world war.

Nebula: Took the wrong pill ages ago and has been trying to incite a world war wherever possible.

Guslantis: Bunch of guinea pigs disguised as humans attempting to clean up the mess caused by the above three nations.
 
Syrixia: Compassionate people who tend to overreact on small matters.
Nebula: Betrayers.
Guslantis: Kind people, they seem less willing to use violence to solve their issues.
Kalti: Organised and cultural, certainly pretentious in certain circumstances.
Añola: Isolationists, the general populace has little care for global events and discoveries.
 
Cronaal:
Syrixia: Compassionate people who tend to overreact on small matters.

That is so me IRL. XD

Me and my fascination with giraffes is OOC. Syrixia regards them as, well, animals. XD
 
Sytarenne:
I mean negative Stereotypes, because most Stereotypes are kind of negative.
Click to expand...
Not necessarily. I'd argue that most stereotypes are twofold. The image that Asian-Americans are smart may seem positive, but it gives Asian children unrealistically high expectations. I once read an old book that compared "Chinamen" to cats: craft and clever, but also vicious and cruel when aroused. During Jim Crow images of blacks varied between the image of a faithful and submissive servant (Gone with the Wind) and looters and rapists (black Union soldiers in Birth of a Nation).
 
Internal Stereotypes:

The great majority of these I get from watching my dear ol' U.S.A. No offense is intended.
Whites - swashbuckling conquistadors / pampered elite, white trash
Blacks - faithful, loyal, generous church-goers / poor menial laborers, criminals
Asians - clever, resourceful entrepreneurs / greedy, stingy immigrants
Native Kannexans - esoteric, hippie tree-hugging warriors / backwards, conquered people; a dying race
Democrats (as seen by conservative Liberals) - naive idealists or evil atheist traitors trying to weaken the Reich and Christianity
Liberals (as seen by Democrats) - hypocritical, anti-democratic imperialists with no brains
Military Generals - anti-democratic, cynical careerists who are conspiring with the bureaucracy to gain power
Politicians - bought by big corporations such as the Julius Corporation
Bureaucrats - (important) - honest, hardworking civil servants defending the values of the Empire

External Stereotypes:
Syrixia - liberal, generous folk active on the world stage / imperialists trying to drag Kannex into its games
Ceretis - faithful, competent soldiers, the closest thing to a Kannexan
Wolfsea - mysterious, esoteric, inexpressive barbarians who worship strange gods
Nebula - brainwashed evil communists trying to take over the world
Sadakoyama - technology-worshiping heathens
Rhuvanland - fellow German-speaking brothers who always get into trouble; politically turmultuous
Kalti - ???
Sytarenne - ???
Cronaa - ???
 
I'd say it's far too hard to adequately stereotype the Wolvesh, I'd probably say Warlike is the only one I can really come up with. Feel free to contribute alternatives though.

As for other nations the Wolvesh people think the following:

Syrixia: We can trust you but we're not sure how far.
Kannex: A nation to be treated with caution but respected
Sadakoyama: Arrogant, unfeeling, clinical & barely trustworthy
Cronaal: A people who need and deserve our help.
Guslantis- An Interesting People who are certainly respected, certainly no ill-feeling.
Nebula- Not too sure if they can be trusted anymore

Kannex:
Wolfsea - mysterious, esoteric, inexpressive barbarians who worship strange gods

XD you pretty much hit the nail on the head there
 
Syrxians, Kannexians, Nebulese - Gun totting orangutans that go back and forth between shooting at anything around them and screaming incomprehensibly.

Sekai & Kaltians - People of loose morals who attempt to court anyone in eyesight

*More to be added later*

Brief reactions to others' posts. I promise it won't go overboard.
 
Why is that something to comment on in this topic?

Keep it on topic please.
 
Stereotypes:

Nations by geographical location
Southerners: More privileged and weak as a result
Northerners: Hard/Tough, but perhaps not as intelligent as southerners.
Easterners: Idiot imperialists. That is where all the nuclear wars happen.
Westerners: There aren't too many of them yet.

External:
Syrixia: Very excitable, often their own worst enemy.
Malvad: Honest and direct.
Nierr: Friendly and passionate. Friends now and forever <3
Avalon: Respectable and culturally sensitive
Eumenor: Pacifists and academics
Plembobria: Direct and fair minded
Dalies: silent achievers
SillyString: The silliest people in all the land. Also many corruption, such nepotism, much naughty! wow
The Russian Republic: Hard & cold exterior, soft on the inside.

No idea about anyone else at this time. Need to read more about their nations really.
 
Here are the ones for Nebula:
New Sekai: helpful and friendly, if a bit too likely to associate with the wrong sort.
Guslantis: devious and cunning, never make deals without serious benefits.
Wolfsea: strong, confident, best not to cross.
Cascadia: spend too much time hugging trees to understand the real issues.
Kalti: Helmebaine spies, the lot of them.
Sadakoyama: uppity nerds who, instead of smelling the roses, smell the swamp gas.
Rhuvanland: either violent and radical or weak and submissive.
Syrixia: capitalist scum.
Kannex: fascists.

McM... how do the westerners not exist yet? Is this a Father Ted situation where the entire western quarter of your nation just fell off in bad weather or something?
 
I r tired

That is meant to say stereotypes about the region in relation to the map.. Not really sure why I said internal. I'll fix that.
 
Some Syrixian internal stereotypes:

North: Maakani peoples; different from us but still good, culturally sound people.
South: Conservative heartland; people there still think Melletonia exists.
East: There are people there?
West: Top of the mornin' to you, might I be interested in a tea and biscuit? Ho ho ho pip pip.
Southeast: Lazies who only know vacation.
Central: Wait, there's more in central Syrixia besides Lehon City?

Was gonna say lol

Father Ted:
'You were in Wexford, weren't you?'
I was, yes. But Craggy Island has its charms, the west part of the island was beautiful... Until it drifted off.
'Drifted off?'
Yes, there was a storm and it just came loose. Now we don't have a west side, just north, south and east... But it was lovely.

Kannex is a very militaristic and flawed democracy. We have huge corporations that pour money into politicians. As a people, we are generous and piously Christian but also proud. Also, we're German. And we love currywurst. And sauerkraut on our hot dogs. That's probably the only vegetable we eat. We're gun-toting, Pickelhaube-wearing folk with the Bible on one hand and a magazine of swimsuit models on the other.

Syrixia is seen as a more liberal brother and pacifist, while Nebula is seen as a brutal, authoritarian state. Its press and government are liars while they oppress their people under the name of 'socialism'. Nebula is psychopathic and dangerously imperialistic.
 
The stereotypical Syrixia is a Nordic-model welfare state full of rich liberals and tropical beaches.

We speak an incomprehensible language, obsess over dairy, and have a hyperpathological hate for communists DIRTY RED PINKO FASCIST DIRTSCUM WHO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT MUH FREHDUMS.
 
Nebula is a democratic socialist state. Its people, contrary to popular belief, enjoy human rights going beyond those of many so-called libertarian states. Syrixia is seen as behind the times and trapped in old ways, while Kannex is looked at with utter contempt.
 
Kalti is a social democratic state with a welfare system that takes great care of its citizens (cradle to grave healthcare; free education at all levels; paid paternity leave). They believe spending time outdoors is paramount to having a happy life and when it comes to work, they absolutely despise office cubicles... instead preferring wide open work spaces. When it comes to religion, they are very open minded and practical and accept many different manifestations of the Divine, usually in the form of a God and a Goddess. Through The Forum, the overarching governmental bodies that oversee the Confederation, Kaltians tend to frown upon warmongering and do not care much for the petty struggles between democratic states and communist states as they are set in their belief that the only path forward is to combine socialism with capitalism. However, they will get involved if they feel that the cause is just and worthy of their time and effort.

Edit: And now I've realized someone probably will need to delve into the differences between democratic socialism and social democracy since everyone mixes up the two...
 
I haven't seen much of Kalti in RP, but judging from what he said, Kaltians are a big bunch of mysticism-obsessed hippies.

Pretty much...

The way I role-play the Kaltians is a reflection of how I am in real life.
