Religiously ambiguous, death-worshiping, morally ambiguous, culturally collectivist (albeit emotionally cold for Latin American standards), politically centrist, sexually aggressive women, passive men, Chinese style-bowl cuts for women, Red Guard uniforms to bring tourists, casinos, UFOs, and a general rudeness directed at the Spaniards.
Hey hey, LP here: Too burnt out with this nation to make new lore or fix macrohistorical longue durée alt-his inconsistencies, too clingy to let it die.

Common stereotypes of Bulgislavian citizens:

That all women wear drag 1950's style dresses and men wear plain white tops and black pants (This was true in Bulgislavia's Stalinist era up to 2010 due to a very limited and restrictive state controlled fashion industry)

That all Bulgislavian's are gaunt and malnourished (this steriotype mainly spread after the horrific famine of the 90's and persists up to the current day)

That Bulgislavian's are brainwashed communists (in reality there is a diversity of political beliefs and faiths)

That Bulgislavian's know nothing of the outside world (Once again this only true up to about 2009 when outside material began to make its way into the country despite repressive measures to curb such materials)

That most Bulgislavian's are alcoholics (Alcoholism is a problem but not as bad as most outsiders believe)

so pretty much a standard steriotype of a Bulgislavian is:

An alcoholic, brainwashed communist that is ignorant of the outside world, half starved and wears old and dated clothes from the 1950's

Dear NationStates Leftist,
If you really think your arrogance makes you better than religious conservatives, or really believe than anyone who disagrees or doesn't believe with you is uneducated, you think far to highly of yourselves. Oh, and by the way, science isn't a belief system, so stop saying "ZOMG! U don't believe in Science!". Darwinism (a theory) is a belief system, science is a method to understand the universe using evidence PRESENTED.

haha, Where to start...

somewhat true:
Capitalist nations would call us tree-huggers, because we put the welfare of nature and environmental stability above all else
Democratic nations would call us doormats, because the average person has no political power as we are run by an oligarchy
Iron Fist-style governments would call our national leaders weak, because civil rights are lax

incorrect:
A common misconception is that we're primitive because we don't use fossil fuels and don't cut trees, however we rely heavily on wind and solar to generate our energy, so we're not really that far behind the rest of the world.
Since we are reluctant to kill any living thing for anything deemed luxury, some think that we are a nation of vegetarians, however we do consume meat which has been raised and dies of natural causes (though this practice does make meat a rare delicacy in our state).

Fennish Stereotypes
Good: Cigar-smoking, broad-brimmed hat-wearing, beer-drinking, tall, bearded, sunglasses-wearing, Patriotic, Christian Russians of Oceania.
Bad: Strict, hairy, tobacco-addicted, alcoholic, militaristic, Nationalist, racist (except for the native Maori tribes), Australian wannabes who hate all other religions except Christianity.

Maori Stereotypes
Good: Athletic, tough, martial-art practicing, spear-holding, tattooed tribesmen who look awesome in military uniform and sunglasses.
Bad: Idiotic, brain-dead, leaf-wearing, naked savages who can't appreciate culture and civilization.
I like TGs. About anything, especially history, Germany, the UK, and the Royal Marines. You may call me Fence, since that's all anybody calls me.

Stereotypes include
    rich
    ignorant towards non-citizens
    furries
    animal-"lovers" (see right above)
    imperialists (this one is the most true)
    party/rave animals
    aspies (more of a racial stereotype against our kamikagayaki wolf population but mainly used towards our nation as a whole)
    ants (because of the fact that most people live in highly densely populated areas)

Friendly and overly obsessed with technology. Xenophobic, we do not take kindly to immigration. Pacifistic and diplomatic. Turks (others call us Kebabs) and somewhat laxed religiously. Go with the flow type. Strong sense of cooperation amongst the community. Speaks a language that does not sound like anything in Europe.

Oh, an old stereotype is that we are nomads and want all your fields and to burn your cities.

Capitalistic, meritocratic, hedonistic techno-geeks. We love to talk and debate, even if we're often rude doing it, and our interest in debating politics sometimes devolves into rioting. It's not too uncommon for foreign visitors to regard us as decadent, since the sex and drugs trades flourish, blood sports are (sort of) legal, and many Slobovians seek luxury.

A bunch of bleeding-heart, excessively polite egalitarian idealists who cuss like sailors doing meth and who are constantly high on some strange combination of pot, LSD and caffeine.

All are basically true, although the government discourages mixing drugs.
