What are Americans’ biggest misconceptions about Europe? | Talking Transatlantic Affairs, S2 Ep7

It’s no secret that some Americans have stereotypes of Europeans. But are they accurate? Over the last year, the Bertelsmann Foundation has interviewed Europeans for their views on Europe, the United States, and the transatlantic relationship. In this installment of the series, we asked folks what they felt were the biggest misconceptions Americans have about Europeans.

You could literally making the same video in reverse. Europeans say the same things about the US/the Americas. I find that interesting. People say they go to Europe because they go to multiple states in Europe usually. Europeans thinks they are unique and diverse (the European meaning of diversity, not the US American one), but for anybody not from Europe, they aren't really all that different other than weather (north/south). Obviously they are different, but the subtleties they see are not that great when looking at the whole.
