I live in Denmark. I`m happy that I live in a tiny country.

Our tallest "mountain" is 360 feet, if we drive more than 3½ hour in car, we must switch to either German or Swedish, depending on the direction, lol :biggrin:

I am from the United States, from the State of West Virginia.

 

I am proud that we are the only State born out of the American Civil War...when we left Virgina (who was on the Confederate side) to create a separate State that immediately joined the Union.

Serbian heritage, born and living in Zadar, Croatia. (Quite ironic actually being the fact that these two nations hate each other).

I'm not proud of anything because all we can do is f*** things up :(

I was thinking..didn't Serbia stop the Turkish invasion of Europe in 1593? Thats an accomplishment to be proud of.

Actually Serbs were part of otoman empire, Habsburs stopped Ottomans invasion... Serbs got Nikola Tesla and Novak Djokovic <-(The best ever!) to be proud of

Deep South, USA

 

I'm proud of the Civil War. History kinda lost the reason we got into it in the first place... we didn't want big government. Why the heck would the (majority) of the south who didn't OWN slaves have gotten in the war if it was JUST about slaves?

 

It was because we didn't want the government nosing in on us, we wanted to run our states how we wished... the higher tariffs for the South compared with the North didn't help either...

 

I'm proud that we stood up and fought. I wish we'd do it again.

 

What the winners of the war won't tell you. (Best link I could find that wasn't written by the winners. Winners write the history of wars.)
