Actually every sovereign country has the right to pursue their agenda & objectives and there might be conflict of clashes among the countries. As a matter of fact, it is not the Country that you hate, it’s the people, therefore, none must have hatred feeling for a country. More so, you actually hate the habits, the attitudes, the styles of people, not exactly the people.
We must not hate countries and we must love people as they is always a chance that they will correct themselves. Let’s start correcting the people from now on and hence forth.

USA, no doubt. Ask anyone living outside the USA.
Here is a good reason:
In order to understand why, as you put it, people across the globe hate America, you must understand the following:
Throughout its history, the United States has intervened in almost every other nations' history. Whether it is by politics or force, the government will do its best to have its citizens believe that the intervention been done is for a justifiable cause such as overthrowing a dictatorship, communism, etc.
As an American citizen living within the United States, you do not experience the same as what the citizens of the country or territory been interviened experience. While you may watch CNN footage on what is taking place and change the channel once you get tired of watching it, people living in the country affected have to live in that footage 24-7. To be able to understand what they feel, and why they feel the way they do, you must be able to hear their stories and ultimately, put yourself in their shoes. This is difficult because as human beings, it is in our nature to think of ourselves first and the rest of the world last. However, if you still care to understand I will share with you a part of history that defines intervention:
In the early 1900's, Nicaragua, a small country in Central America that had only won its independence from Spain a half a century before, had been occupied by the Armed forces of the United States. A patriot, named Sandino, led a group of insurgents to liberate the country. As they began causing serious casualties, the United States brought together a group of mercenaries from Nicaragua to fight and stop the insurgents. After winning the battle and bringing death to Sandino, the United States supported in naming a man by the name of Somoza to the presidency. That started a dictatorship in Nicaragua that lasted until the late 1970's. During this time, the Somozas maintained power, and distributed wealth among the elite while the poor were hardly regarded. A rebel group who named themselves the Sandinistas started a rally to overthrow the government. After many deaths, the Sandinistas took power and made it their goal to help the poor by way of a socialist goverment. Since the wealth had been in control of the elite, many fled the country in fear that the new government would take control of their possessions. News spread to Washington that this new type of government created another communist country in the Western Hemisphere (Cuba was the other) and that it would cause threat to the United States and democracy. It wasn't even two years that the new government had began to establish free healthcare and education to the poor among other programs when the United States ordered a world block against its economy meaning that no other country in the world would buy or sell to Nicaragua. Further, president Reagan sent weapons to mercenaries in neighboring Honduras to invade Nicaragua and overthrow the Sandinistas. That war lasted until the late 80's. Many people died. Orphans were not a strange sight. Empty supermarkets and hunger were common. Those who could fled the country. Even after the war, the country has not recovered and is now among the poorest nations in the western hemisphere.
This piece of history is not unique in regards to intervention by the United States. It is just as similar as in other parts of the world. Although many history books will tell you the timelines, the experiences by the people of that nation cannot be understood by timelines alone and political justification does not justify human deaths destruction and consequences.
I would like to share with you an important note before concluding. When president Reagan died, Newspapers in Nicaragua reported that people in Nicaragua prayed to God to forgive him for the consequences of his actions.
In conclusion, I hope you have learned of how U.S. interventions changes peoples lives everyday. That is why Americans must vote for leaders who can lead the country and at the same time make the right decisions regarding world affairs and understand that the consequences are high.

Basically, most western countries that pillaged and destroyed indigenous civilizations around the world (sorry, I've been reading about Mexico and how the Spaniards destroyed the Aztec center of government in what is now present day Mexico City). I say this to illustrate that it's all about one's perspective

How can you hate a country and why?
You don't like the shape, the mountains aren't in the right place, too many rivers etc.
How can you hate a people of any country, we are all different, no clones as yet.

There is a difference between a country's government and its people. eg Iranians may like USA citizens but not the gov't.
