yeah I'm proud of Germany.
although we always get put down for WWII and things connected I don't care no country is perfect and has fucked up in the past (kind of like people)
We have a great soccer team (sometimes hur hur), great food, great culture, great people, great social system (as far as healthcare, welfare, retirement, etc.)

I agree with that. The biggest problem for a German is, if you're proud of your country you get to hear you're a nazi and all that kind of shit. Come on Germany is more than Hitler, Heidi, beer, sheep and green meadow

I mean the USSR period. But now the country and its people bebirth from the ruins. The youth like it's country and we do everything possible for it's faster recovery!

But my love for my motherland does not humiliate my love to the whole world, Japanese including. The world is so wonderful that i can't but appreciate it!:vsign:

i like ur attitude.i wish there would be more russians like u..we have a lot of russians here who still want my country to be a part of the russia -.-..every country has a right to be independent..right?

Proud of my country?? so much... with the kind of people living there... hate them... I'm from Argentina and I really really love my country... but hate people from there, can't understand how can be that way and ruin such a beautiful country like that... sometimes I feel ashamed to say where I'm from... it's so sad to see...

I'm not proud of my country. (The Netherlands)
Most of you'll probably wonder why, The Netherlands are a relatively rich country, we have freedom of speech and our democracy works quite properly.
I'm just not proud of The Netherlands.
But I'm not proud of teenagers, or Spanish speaking people, or Tokio Hotel fans. And I am those as well.
I like some Dutch people though, and I think we have possibilities to be proud of. But The Netherlands, I think it's too unclear what it is. Is The Netherlands cheese? Or Anouk, a Dutch singer? Or is it Christianity? Or maybe even Geert Wilders (a politicus)? I like cheese, I think Anouk is a great singer, I'm not raised with Christianity, I vote Femke Halsema in stead of Geert Wilders.
So I'm not proud of The Netherlands, it's a lot I like but it's also a lot I don't like. ^^
