It's ok to be patriotic and rep where you're from as long as it's not BLIND patriotism.  By that I mean you NEVER or rarely recognize your governments commit wrongdoings, whether you're English,American, Israeli etc.

Also the most important thing is to RECOGNIZE there are other countries but yours.  And I think it's wrong to say any country is the "Greatest" because it depends how you define greatest.  I've been to about 9 different countries including America, and the one I liked the best and would most like to live in is Switzerland.  Does that make it the greatest?  No.

Be patriotic, but have some humility.
