Consider what the particular country or nation means to you—what comes to mind when you think of that country or its people, culture, language, etc. For example, Germany might represent intelligence, practicality, a place where you drink good beer, or fast driving. Mexico might represent friendliness, colorful culture, family traditions, etc. A foreign country (different from yours) can also represent a feeling of unfamiliarity, strangeness, or different from what you’re used to.
