Yeah I think a lot of that comes from the Cold War era. America GOOD, communism BAD.

I think it's from even further back than that.

Europe was still ruled by kings/queens/emperors/nobles and americans were like: "That's dumb". And now look at europe, all democratic and stuff. :smuggo:

My family in eastern europe think America is just like the American soap operas that get dubbed (poorly) and shown over there. Everyone is beautiful, everyone wears awesome clothes, everyone lives in a mansion, and has crazy interesting lives.

Even though that's not entirely true, I can't even explain to them what it's really like over here. You just have to come to America to understand it.
