    I live in the USA but I'm 50% Nigerian, and it doesn't make me too happy about what they say about Nigeria either. We're not ALL scam artists, and we don't ALL hate whites. Before making any type of assumptions about other countries, people should actually VISIT them. Not rely on the news, or stupid websites as a source- those are full of generalizations, and say terrible things just for ratings.

    America likes to stereotype, when they have many stereotypes themselves. How does it feel to be known as the fattest country? Or the most prejudice?

    Source(s): Born in America with Nigerian parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc..

    No i dont think so. Jordan has a image of an Open Muslim nation. Westerners like Jordan, Lebanon over other Middle East Countries.

    The Middle East has a reputation for violence. It's just human nature for some people to stereotype and make assumptions that all Middle Eastern countires are the same.

    Just stay off the US yahoo answers because their mentality seems to be something like middle east = terrorists paradise. Not everyone thinks that however
