This flies in the face of some preconceptions, like that "everybody" hates the French. Also, if you've seen The Last King of Scotland, you may recall the Scottish protagonist spinning a globe and saying to himself, "The first place you land, you go," and when his finger lands on Canada, he spins again.

I would like to see the results of a similar study for many other countries. Not all of them, of course; you can't expect many strong opinions on, say, Andorra.

Oh, wuh?! And I suppose you don't see the inherent cultural value of Lichenstien either!

28,000 people is the world now? Wow! It's a small world after all!
Who sleeps shall awake, greeting the shadows from the sun
Who sleeps shall awake, looking through the window of our lives
Waiting for the moment to arrive...
Show us the silence in the rise,
So that we may someday understand...

It's enough to get a general consensus.

As nice as Canada is made out to be sometimes, I've never wanted to go there.
