What is one thing that the world believes to be true about your country, but the belief is actually incorrect? I love this site because I am able to speak with people from all over the world. 

I'm an American and one stereotype about Americans is that we all own guns. The truth is that a large segment of Americans do not own guns, and they think that guns should be illegal.

That it rains a lot and every everyday in the UK, it does not. The rainiest part is around Manchester because it is under a small mountain range, this is common to all such areas globally that are below mountains that break the clouds forming and flowing over them.

With all due respect, I really don't think italki is the place to promote your political ideology.
