national pride

is your country a proud country? do you feel any pride for being a citizen of a particular country?

i live in austrayerland and in the media, there is an exaggerated idea of 'being australian' and 'australian way' but a lot of people including myself don't take it seriously or care. of course there are those small core groups who are nationalists but they're rare.
and my citizenship probably counts for 0.7% of my identity. i don't feel much affinity with my countrymen. my loyalties pretty much extend to preferring our sporting teams to win in international competitions. that's about it.

Same as >>4 I feel proud about the ideals my country was based on, however it is for that reason that I can't really be proud of my country today as I feel that it has lost those ideals.  Both the government and the people.
