Being a Queendom (where the throne is only held by a woman, never a man) it is often thought that our society is women dominate and men are subservient - Amazons. Which is untrue as men and women really do have equal rights. Granted, as to oppose to a majority of countries family names are passed down from mother to children, rather than father to children, except for special cases of inheritance in the nobility.

Rastabites are also seen as tree-huggers or hippies since a great deal of care and attention is paid to our environment. And we're seen as a little odd in that we live a modern world, with modern technology but still believe in magic and use it.

Xenophobic psychic space elves who think they're better than everybody else.

We accept the first two, reluctantly concede that human minds no doubt find excessive similarity in appearance to 'Elves', but must whole-heartedly correct the last: we know we're better. ;)

Laid back, stubborn, rebellious punks who are fiercelly patriotic and listen to too much rock. Have a hard time differentiating between work and play, always sing while they work. Nice people overall, but hold strong to their beliefs and can be extremely hostile. Slightly xenophobic, they view other races as different and more talented than ordinary people, merely due to their not being exposed to other races much (all borders were closed from the begining of Alexlantis to 2000, when Emperor Alkovan liberated the nation).

People view our citizens as Crazy Communist Anime fans who are obsessed with pokémon. They are right about that, we ARE crazy communist anime fans obsessed with pokémon.
My nation is not like my nation page at all, it contradicts itself, we don't EVER eat kangaroos, that's just very sad. Also vegetarianism is compulsory yet it still says it's the nation's favourite main course and all and stuff.

Ostronopolian stereotypes range depending on the geographical location. For example, in the south of the nation people are generally seen as Gun-toting, alcoholics that are known for their deep-seeded hospitality to new neighbors. Whereas the north, is known for being highly aristocratic in nature and are likely to be more culturalists than others. Westerners are known for their fierce independence and conservatism. They are known for their isolation in comparison to the rest of the nation, in the sense that outside of work and weekends the people generally all keep to themselves. Massive rolling plains help this to that effect. Finally Easterners and people in the coasts are known for being possibly the most progressivist people in the Federal Republic. Known for their nicknamed "hippie movements" in the early 1970s and 80s, easterners are the most sociable people in the Union.

As a general stereotype for most Ostronopolians, there really is no preset as the Federal Republic being a union of many cultures and states, has more cultures associated therein those states rather than the actual nation as a whole. Though a rough estimate would be for men: Gun-Toting, Whiskey drinking, cigar smoking, patriotic conservative intellectuals. For women, which truly fit the term of 'the fairer sex' in Ostronopolis: Moral, Devout, moderately conservative intellectuals.

A Central Facehuggrian diplomat discribed the general Sskiss outlook best.

"The Sskiss are very reasonable. You just have to make sure they are well fed beforehand"

The Sskiss as a whole are viewed as ancient, primordial, patient, viciously territorial, inscrutable, and perhaps most all all, tenacious and implacable. The Sskiss view most humanoids as dangerously unstable creatures "egglings ignorant of great truths" who will quite happily murder each other in large numbers over the most trivual of differences. This of course serves the Sskiss, although the Sskiss know they also have there uses.

There is often a certain seething smoldering madness in some individuals. Such individuals usually seek power...

Xenophobic, homophobic, right wing neo-Fascist assholes who drink too much, drive too fast, are fiercely territorial, racist (or, at the very least, segregationists), and value success over morals and being a good person. When we get bored, we go fight or shoot stuff or street race. We generally belittle outsiders, and as such, tourism suffers, little to the care of Imitorans. There are very few nations Imitorans respect, and those that do usually have such a poor understanding of Imitorans that they don't know that we respect them. Interesting that. As a whole, Imitorans aren't people pleasers.

I wouldn't know how to stereotype myself. I will let other nations do so based on these facts:

It seems a majority of Segronovinan citizens are in some way descendants of French colonists from the nation's founding, thus being white.
On the flip-side, it seems that black and cross-racial citizens take up more seats in parliament then the white majority of the general populace.
Most soldiers are trained in at least the basics of jungle and desert fighting, and guerilla warfare.

That's all I can think of at the moment, my nation being as young as it is.

The people are all descended from English, Scotish, Welsh and Irish and are renound for the fierce loyalism to the monarchy, they would happily lay down their lives for their sovereign and country. They will defend their nation's heroes until they're blue in the face if needs be, they are some of the proudest people in the Empire.

Weird how that happens 'innit?
The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.- Carl Sagan

Somewhat pretentious, but very friendly, Brostkorgs tend to be very liberal and opinionated, yet rarely do they have quick tempers. This is often misunderstood because Brostkorgs love to talk shit, but rarely mean it. Brostkorgs usually save most of their angry energy for the mosh pit, the drag strip, or the shooting range. Most don't seem to mind the way foreigners tend to label them as hotheaded and abrasive; some even wear the stereotype like a badge.
