  1. This guy has never been lectured by a german why your country sucks and why germans are doing it better

  2. “We are taught about the dangers of exacerbated nationalism due to our dark past, and we absolutely don’t venerate our country, but we do think everything we do and our way of life is literally superior to everyone else” – Hans, the fake humble

  3. somebody doesnt know any Germans, lol.

    For two examples how we know that we are better.

    1. When we are driving in italy we look out and think, such a gorgeous country but why do they throw their trash everywhere?
    2. When we travel in the UK we look around and think: I finally understand why they talk non stop about the war, it looks like we bombed them last week.

  4. The point with Italy is that we hate our country but we believe that we are somewhat superior in certain subjects and yet we are the only ones authorized to talk shit about it

  5. No Spaniard loves Spain because that’s “fascist” (due to Franco’s nationalism). 

  6. I’d say Germany is well into the “hates their country – believes their country is superior” territory

  7. We have a love-hate relatioship with our contry, should be in the line. And we think it superior to all of you, dont be fooled

  8. Sweden is awesome, it’s just the people, darkness, cold and food i cant stand.

    Oh yeah and healthcare

  9. What? We Greeks believe we live in the greatest country in the multiverse.

  10. Denmark needs to be off the charts in “loves their country”

    Not that anyone in here would know anything about that but still.

  11. I dont hate my country i just hate that my government runs my country into the ground, and i mean all major parties not just red/blue bullshit

  12. we love our country and we think were superior because were not proud of our coutnry

  13. Realistically, the Italian flag should be moving erratically, almost in a glitched way, through all the compass.

    At inhuman speed.

  14. Portuguese love their country and think it’s far superior to all. But they consider that other portuguese people ruin it

  15. Only British people who spend too much time on the internet hate Britain.

  16. Honestly true for Germany as long as we aren’t talking to polish, Italien, Spanish, greek, AUSTRIANCE, Fr*nch

  17. To be fair now, Sweden is the best nation in the world by every single metric, but you’d hate it too if you lived here.

  18. Italians don’t believe that at all. We always complain about us/our country and continuosly saying how much we suck.

  19. Problem is we are only superior to the Danes and French. From everybody else we could learn a thing or two.

  20. I kinda get the “inferior” part but I love my shitty country

  21. As a Scottish Brit, I’d like to say I sit further to the bottom right than Italy for the United Kingdom, as I know we’re better than you.

  22. It’s not so much that we are great, it’s that everyone else sucks even more.

  23. ??? The Dutch made a fuss about hanging the dutch flag in the dutch Parliament

  24. That’s the political left. The new right (“neue Rechte”) is at the opposite side of the graph. Recent elections show they are gaining quite some support now. I wouldn’t be surprised if the sentiment shifts in a few years.

  25. Italians love their country is hilarious. Our love is For food and For our landscapes, but I think that’s it unfortunatly.

  26. What do you mean?!?!
    How can a country be loved when It has Pisa, Grosseto and…

    Hughhhhug

    Prato in It…

  27. I’m actually very patriotic about Belgium, as in the *geographic entity*, so the actual land that it is located on. Belgium is without exaggerating a very diverse country in terms of landscapes. As an avid hiker, I know many gorgeous spots and trails in every nook and cranny of our country that 99% of Belgians will never step a foot in. So I’m quite attached to the land.

    But Belgium, as in the *political entity*? Yeah, I agree there’s not much feeling there.
