It makes me think that TH is just a petty bitch.

Maybe TH should have worded it a bit less strongly but just play along tbh. For me it's the US.
A country is many things. It's the land itself. The dirt, mountains, forests... and I can't hate that. It's also the people, but people are different so there's awesome people and **** people in every country. It's also an idea. A society agrees to have common laws and call themselves Americans and share a culture.

What I could hate would be a system, a government or a culture. Or I could just stop taking the question so literally and say **** you, USA! Your over the top, exageratted culture of political polarity is complete ****. A nation of drama queens.

I like that last sentence

All of that is true but I think it's just meant as a light hearted question tbh (correct me if I'm wrong TH).

We have had questions before like 'what is your favourite country' and people answered it no problem and posted the reasons why, this is just the opposite.

There is no need to over think it imo.

I dunno suppose I'm just a bit disappointed as I wanted to see some answers other than 'I don't hate a country'.

This is just my opinion though don't ban me @mods

Actually a country is only the land. The people are the nation and the government is the state.

Attempting to answer the question without a hint of anything serious, I'd just say that Sweden sucks for having an easily readable language that's incomprehensible when spoken. Then they all sound like the Swedish Chef.

That just makes the original question even worse! "What plot of land do you nurture a deep sense of hatred for?".
