Just don't think proudly of yourself for being German, if German values are reflected in you then it is because of the influence that it has had on you, not something you can attribute to your own merit.

    Same applies to anyone from anywhere.
    I think we had that discussion before and it came down to proud also having a somewhat more applicable meaning in english or something like that.

    I don't see any problem when German is pround to be German.
    Germany is nice country with well organised people.
    Problem starts when Germans starts being pround from sending people do gas chambers.
    If they are pround of being Germans and they are pround from their country - ok for me.
