I'm British and I'm actually quite proud of Sweden. They brought us The Knife (Silent Shout was one of my personal favourite albums ever) and they also brought us Amnesia The Dark Descent. They also have low crime and one of the best Education systems in the world.

Are you proud of a country other than your own?

I'm not religious, however I am more proud of Nations with inter-faith harmony. Britain is heading in the right direction but you still get nob heads like the EDL and the BNP.

I _would_ be proud of the U.S.A. for all their culture and accomplishments if they didn't have serious poverty issues, no welfare for those who are disabled and need it, and the death penalty.

I pretty much consider myself democratic.... but I am for the death penalty. There are just people in this world that do not deserve life because of the things they do.

Why are you against it?

I believe that is is the responsibility of any Government to set an absolute example of behavior. I also believe that temperance is a Virtue.

Australia. There are alot of deros there.

I'm not sure how to respond to this. A snappy comeback? Logical perspective? EXPRESSING MY DISTASTE IN CAPS LOCK? Regardless, I'll just leave leave this little angry face here.

I'm proud of England and Scotland, for having given me kilts, sexy men and baked beans. Oh, and tea. But I guess tea is from the East, so I'm proud of Japan, China and Thailand, too..

Those same Scandinavian countries for being awesome and metal, as well as a few others for being awesome at unique things. Like Paris for not destroying their city with modern skyscrapers.

I'm not proud of any nation as that seems to be some kind of prelude to racism, ethnicism, etc. I can respect certain things, but to "be proud" of a country means you are generalizing an entire population of people - many of whom may not contribute anything to that which you are "proud".

well ok, I understand about the "suburbia in australia" I've been to worst part like adelaide (still a city though but feel so surbie ....) to appreciate Australia, we must love sydney first. I always think Sydney, Cape Town and Aukland are twin city because of the slightly similar accent and surrounding

From my experience, they're called Australians until they do something objectionable. For example, when Mel Gibson had that anti-semitic rant, he suddenly became "that American bloke". Likewise, Russell Crowe was estranged after his telephone throwing fiasco until he calmed down a bit and got involved with the Rabbitohs.
