Big fan of Germany.

But to come to the topic of this thread, I can't believe I actually prefer Germany... I probably shouldn't say that out loud Tongue

I think these polls would tell us more with a partisan or ideological layout, maybe coupled with maybe ancestry.

Deutschland!  I'm learning German.  I got to visit the country this summer.  I love the language and the country; it's not really a contest.

France, since its political system is waaaaaay more democratic than the German one.
In what way?

France has the direct election of their president (with a tenure limit!!!!), the majority voting system, an upper house with independent members, and first and foremost, they have national referenda. Plus, a pay raise for the members of the National Assembly won't become effective until the next legislative period (like in the US).
Furthermore, France (like the US) knows what separation of powers means: delegates can't be members of the government, and high officials like judges, prosecutors, prefects and marshals can't become delegates. 
All in all: France is a democracy, Germany is not.

Germany I both prefer the German de-centralism and my experience with Germans on a personal level have been more positive than my experiences with the French (or rather to be fair with Parisians).
