Music is what makes you proud of your nationality?

No wonder we (USA) kicked your ass and won our freedom/independence!! ;)

I'm simply just proud to be an American because it's the land of the free!!

My nationality is irrelevant to me.

To be honest, I don't proud on "Nationality" thing.

I'm both proud of the UK, and disappointed.

Musically, there is no other country that comes close to the UK in terms of influence and quality.

We're still good at sports, including football, rugby, Formula 1 and golf.

We have the SAS, the best special forces in the world.

On the flip side, we have UK politics, and it's utter ****, especially with immigration.

I am proud to be Canadian because Canada is a land filled with multiculturalism, comprised of people from all ethnicities, so much so, that in major metropolis centres of the country there are far fewer Caucasian citizens that foreign ethnicities. That takes the cake for me: Canada's wide appeal as a place where diversity brings people together as opposed to segregating them.

And of course most people have heard the "You know you are Canadian when?" My favourite one includes the one used in the Tide commercial:

?No self respecting Canadian says "let?s wait for a warmer day." -- Because much of the time, a warmer day is a long way off :p

Really? Germany has such a rich and varied history. I've always figured I'd be very proud to be German...

I'm from a generation which was raised to be vary of patriotism. Ok, there may be one or two reasons to be proud of this country's heritage, I'll give you that - 'Land der Dichter und Denker' springs to mind.

Understandable. Patriotism can be used as a tool by those with nefarious intentions. If people rally behind something good, corrupt that "something good" to bring power to your agenda.

The US is doing absolutely the same at the minute. Blaming their woes on a demographic, all the time waving the flag of patriotism.

But such issues are a small blot on Germanic history - a once proud nation and rightly so.

[remixedcat]

I kinda am proud of my heritage, but I don't let that define me.

I am not so proud to be an american but at least it's better then the middle east or africa...

[Dan~]

I still want to live in Germany, just not sure if I'll miss the beaches we have

I had a German tutor at Uni and you could tell he was proud of Germany. He was keen to stress how progressive Weimar Germany was, cinema, art, literature etc. I dont think what came after should mean everything good should be dismissed.

I am proud of Australia (my birth country) because we have such a beautiful country, some pretty nice people, we're a very rich country and have a very high standard of living.

As for Austria (my living country) this is another beautiful country full of amazing history, we have a bad ass language here!, the people are very friendly and also a bit quirky and strange.
