When it comes to countries, Americans have their distinct preferences, a new Gallup survey shows.

The survey asked a random sample of 1,000 Americans simple questions: How do you feel toward a series of 23 different countries? Is your view favorable or not? While Gallup did not ask about every country in the world, the diverse sample provides insight into the preferences of average Americans.

Ninety-six percent of Americans liked their northern neighbor, Canada, followed by 93% who liked the land down under, Australia. Trailing Australia were Britain, Germany, Japan and India. Israel came in eighth, with 71% of Americans expressing a positive view of the Jewish state, up 3% from last year.

Iran, on the other hand, was at the bottom of the list, with only 10% expressing a favorable view of that country. Just above Iran was North Korea, with 13% in favor. Slightly higher were Afghanistan (14%), Syria (17%), the Palestinian Authority (19%) and Cuba (37%).

China ranked surprisingly low in American preferences. It came in 14th, with only 41% in favor. Some U.S. citizens have blamed China for taking away American jobs, even while they like to import products manufactured in China, such as the iPhone.
