Things about your country that make you proud

[ThreeWords]

We discovered half the world?(Portugal) Then those stinky Brits came and stoled it from uss!!

Nasssssty Britsss....ssstealing our precisssoussss landssss!!!

Possibly this (sorry oliveira8 =P )

But we (the nasty Brits) did used to own one of the largest empires in history.

On the other hand, the thing that makes me most proud is the fact that my country is stable and prosperous for me to remain happy almost all the time, without having to worry about anything except school work and romance

You thieves and back stabbers. You got to late into the over sea Empire crap soo you stole from everyone else with the help from Pirates and Dutch folk!

Even worse, you came to Portugal to fight the Napoleonic Invasions, the last thing you did..was FIGHTING!

*grumble grumble*

Largest Empire...yeah Largest Stolen Empire more like it!

*rant rant rant rant*

What great Allies you turned out to be.

Yes, yes, and yes. These are reasons that do make me proud. (I think we're suing different rules of morality here)

Well, we owned half the world at one point, we have a dry sense of humour, and most importantly, we have a stiff upper lip.

Yay for England.

 

[Soxafloppin]

We made the delorean, and we invented potatoe bread which is amazing and not available in any other country, come and try some. (northern ireland)

 

[Irridium]

The U.S.

Because we get just about everything before Europe and Austrailia, and we pay less for it.

Thats right, I just went there.

 

[Christemo]

we conquered half of Europe during the Viking Age (Denmark)

 

[SomeLameStuff]

Ummmmm... we're good friends with all the big powerful countries?

very high level of solar power usage (possibly highest in the world)
very large piece of the global high-tech market for its small size
very high life expectancy (3rd place in the world for men, 15th for women)
ability to overcome overwhelming obstacles since its creation
high level of social integration of groups of people from almost every race and color in the world
highly professional and capable army with an incredibly impressive track record

[Witty-Name]

A tiny little island with only a few natural resources that dominated the world for centuries, had an empire that the sun never set on.

We invented TV, the internet, the jet engine and radar.

We birthed Shakespeare, Newton, Orwell and Churchill; and sheltered Marx, Freud and Marley (Bob).

We gave the world pop music (The Beatles) and good rock music (The Rolling Stones), we explored the artistic highs of rock (Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd) and smashed it all down (Sex Pistols and the Clash).

We curbed the power of kings (Magna Carta) and resisted the forces of tyranny whilst our allies failed or hid.

And I'll damned if we're ever openly proud of any of it!

Go Britain!

You pretty much summarised most of what I would have said. I'm pretty proud of the cultural and scientific achievements that have come from England. Also we do have some great comedy.

 

[Nazulu]

Australia has AC/DC and I am seeing 'em live next year!

I heard Bon Scotts back alive.

How is that even possible? How is it possible to even spread a rumour about that?

Australia has AC/DC and I am seeing 'em live next year!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

So am I.
Can't bloody wait. What city?

Melbourne. I can wait, need more time to brag.

The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Yes, Jethro Tull, The Kinks, The Clash, The Who, Queen, Judas Priest, Eric Clapton, David Bowie, etc.

No wonder England is still ahead in the music industry.

Are you talking about Russia or the States?

 

[MercurySteam]

Australia has generally very friendly people. (I think)

So "where the bloody hell are ya?"

 

[Hybridwolf]

Britain, and the thing I love about this country is that we never give up, we've always stayed loyal and we once where strong.

The reason I hate Britain is that usless pile of crap that is the labor party, clogging up progress and screwing our country. They don't give a damn about Britain, they want to line their pockets and leave a huge pile of shit for the next party to come into. Then when we hate the next party, they'll waltz in and do it all again. It's hard to remain loyal to Britain when we're becoming a laughing stock thanks to ignorant leadership.

At least the next party can't screw us up anymore. We're already on the road to ruin...But I can't give up hope. Because I know that it's only because of one reason we're on the road to ruin, and once that reason is gone, things will get better, or heads will roll.
