France rocks. No country in the world has succesfully arrived to such an equilibrium of modernity and tradition, activity and leisure, distinctiveness and immorality, neither does any country have such a variety of climates, landscapes and architecture, a richness of culture in such a small place

A western european country. Also called "The Hexagone" by geometry-deficient journalists. 1000 km x 1000 km in its wider dimensions, but still a kick-ass country. Judge by yourself:
-35 hrs working hours a week, 5 weeks paid holidays a year, and still the 4th economy on the planet.
-main audience (hence funding source) for W. Hallen and D. Lynch movies, among others, thus supporting non-mainstream US movie industry
-full of people who still beleive that democracy mean that the government should be an emanation of People's will (unlike what happens in nowadays in most "democratic" countries,including the US.). But still managed to elect one of the craziest dictator-wanabees ever as president (N. Sarkozy). Crazy French people ;).
-Full of people who drink alcool and/or smoke like crazy, eat fat and tasty dishes, but still have a lower incidence of stroke, obesity, or even cancer, than in most of "civilized" countries.
-A country where oral sex is indeed considered as sex, but where sex is still not considered as a bad thing (this point may explain the upper one ;) )
-A country full of people who have an annoying accent when they speak english. A country full of people who have the sexiest accent ever when they speak english. (depending on the relative genders of the speaker and audience).
-The main reason why the US are now an autonomous country. And they did that only to annoy England. ;)
-The country which likes the most annoying the US (and other "superpower" countries, not to cite Russia), just for fun (and Principles, whatever this means to non-French people)
-The native country of Rousseau, Voltaire et al., who initiated the "siècle des lumières" and came up with the aforementioned Principles, now very useful when it comes to annoying other countries. Subsequently, a refuge for numerous free-thinkers (who said "just to annoy other countries"?). Famous examples are Leon Sedov (son of Leon Trotsky), just to annoy the USSR who was seeking to kill him, or Salman Rushdie, just to annoy the Ayatollas. The former was assassinated in Paris by a KGB agent whereas the second is still alive, which would tend to prove that the efficiency of French security services improved, or that the KGB was more efficient than islamist activists ;).
-The country the notion of "Human Rights" comes from (origin in the aforementioned "siècle des lumières"), but which is now one of the countries in Europe where they are the less observed in prisoners' treatment (just after Turkey). That's what "living on your reputation" means, folks! Still giving lessons around about human rights, just to annoy other countries (exactly the same as the US do about democracy).
-The country where the first touristic destination in the world is located (aka Paris). Note that people from Paris are considered as weird and unpleasant by most of the other people in France. You're not the only one ;). But some people say that they're that way just to annoy people from other countries!
-and so on... you can imagine the other sarcastic-but-friendly comments by yourself if you've been there! (And if you haven't, go and see before writing bullshit!)
-man, I tell ya, French people are jerks!
-Shut your shithole, you've only been to Paris, you don't know France!

A country most poeple either love or hate. Some people are smart and see France is a very smart, beautiful and successful country, probably one of the best places to live in the world. Others (American dumbasses mostly) see it as a country full of wimps just because they surrendered during WWII (btw Germany never had full control of France, and the resistance was what helped the Americans even survive there) and because they didn't agree with Bush's idiotic invasion of Iraq. Fact is France has been one of the world greatest country and is one of th world's best culture. And just for the hell of it, France are the ones who saved America from getting their asses beaten red by the Brits, also he country who had control of over half of Europe. France has accomplished more than the US ever will.
If you are smart, you will recognize France for all it has done, if you are a dumbass you will hate it for doing what any other country would have done in its situation.

A kickarse European country, joint third best in Europe along with Germany, after Holland (for its unlimited freedoms) and Sweden (for its unrivalled equality). The shining hope for Europe and all those who wish to stand against American dominance. Every French (and German as a matter of fact) person should be whole-heartedly proud of their country and their brave leader who's got balls bigger than the Incredible Hulk. This coming from a Brit, who is thoroughly ashamed of his country and its horrifically stupid leader.
Typical American conservative: Why didn't France join in our war on Iraq?
Liberal (of any nationality): Because it was illegal, immoral, unjust, unprovoked, based on lies and false information, globally unpopular and done just for money and oil.
Typical American conservative: No! no! America kicks ass! The French are pussies!
Liberal: (sighs) Why do I even bother?

A beautiful country, with a rich and colourful history and culture. A proud, nationalistic country.
Hated by many, especially the Brits, most of whom actually have no real idea why they hate us; probably because their father did. Many claim that we are rude; we are not, we just don't appreciate the (again, often British) tourist approach to our language; that is, to shout at us in English. We also do not suffer fools gladly; some people find that spiky, but hey, look at the results we achive through striking etc on a regular basis. We get results, even from our governement. We do not allow ourselves to be fucked.
Also hated by some, because we will not wnter a war situation without a bloody ood reason. Unlike Britain, who only has to hear Bush click his fingers, and goes running to hump his leg enthusiastically. You will never see this in France...

Known to many redneck Americans as a terrified country just because they didn’t agree with Bush. I don’t agree with Bush, does that make me a scared coward? So before you hicks start condemning France, go read a history book. You’ll be surprised how much France has given us and helped us, from our very beginning.
I think Bush is retarded, I guess I’m cowardly Frenchmen too, eh?
France- smart country that didn’t want to get involved in our stupid war.
America- country lead by retard and hicks that think everyone who disagrees with them are cowards.
