I'm proud to be English, as on the douche-factor of the entire world, we only rate about a 6/10. Most countries get about an 8.

(Yes, the douche-factor is actually my brain.)

We're only beaten by Belgium.

I was born in Britain, I'm half Scottish, and love Ireland and Australia. I don't think that counts as patriotism, though...

We were never a part of Norway we were two nations under one king. Besides long before that happened we had discovered America and also we had a habit of killing your royalties.

Why are you proud to be whatever nationality you are?
Personally I'm proud to be British because of some of the great people this country has made, like William Shakespeare, Isaac Newton, Richard the Lionheart and Winston Churchill.

I don't believe in Patriotism, I don't think it's logical to take pide in the achievments of others as your own.

i like america.

I'm glad im not european, as your birthrates are so low that in 100 years the cultures will be essentially displaced by immigrating (and rapidly reproducing) folks from muslim societies. The germans have realized they'll be an islamic republic by the 2050s.

America isn't much better, we have about 2.11 children per couple, which is the bare minimum for sustaining a culture. NEED MORE IMMIGRATION HERE PEOPLE, LATINOS, COME ONE, COME ALL!

I'm proud to be an American.

We gave the world personal computers and video games, the raison d'etre of this site. We put the beat down on the Evil Empires in World War II, and kept another in check during the Cold War. We've been the shining symbol of freedom and prosperity to the whole world, even if we haven't always lived up to it in practice.
and there was me thinking the english invented the computer :p

as for me im happy with the many many.......many accomplishments from scotland but i suppose im gonna have to go ahead and say the highland games. What other nation takes delight in picking up a telephone pole and chucking it in the air :D

You know, come to think of it. I know I posted a whole Pro-Canadian rant in here earlier. But now I realize it's not so much being part of a country that I'm proud of, as being part of a culture.

And before anyone says anything, the two are very different.

*Facepalm* Yes you where. Before becoming an independent country.
The first people to travel to Iceland where vikings from Norway.
Then after a while some of them decided to stay, and Iceland was born!
Well, apperantly some Irish monks came first, but they left again.

Dont know about that killing royalties thing. Or why you brought it up.

The people coming from Norway were Chiefs that were leaving Norway because of the king (can't remember his name) that was uniting Norway. The chiefs that left Norway never acknowledged him as their king so when in the new country they were independent from him ergo not part of Norway.

Also the killing part: Patriotism.

I'm proud of being Irish. We gave the world some of the greatest writers in history and gave the gaming world Havok.
yes while thats true we are also responsible for Bono so maybe it balances out our greatness.
Bono doesn't exist. He's a concept devised in part by Americans and UNICEF to annoy the people of the world.

Not really proud of being Finnish or English, as i'm not sure i'm either one. One of the bad points of having your military dad drag the family all across Europe.
Hey you're first even somewhat finnish on escapist i've seen in my short time here.
