I will try to write the first words that popped into my head. You may want to ask people what country they are from if you are asking them about words about the country...they may have a different opinion if they are from USA vs Iraq for example. I am from none of the countries listed, and apologize to anyone offended by the words I select. As I said it is the first word that pops in - and first impressions are often wrong.

USA - proud, arrogance, determined
Japan - technology, honor, secretive
India - rural, Ghandi, Shiva
Brazil - sexy, Rio, jungle
China - power, textiles, flooding
Australia - crocodile, shark, rugged
Israel - defense, stubborn, war
South Africa - apartheid, Mandela, Capetown
Iraq - desert, war, beheadings
Russia - cold, strength, vodka
