South Romania is not my country.
I do not have nothing to love when I did not had job 3.5 years in Bucharest when unemployment was under 1.89% being one of the lowest in the world.
I was rejected from jobs on the reason that "you have not been found proper" that in the case I was getting an answer.
Why should I love a bunch of jewized arogant people as most south romanians are?
I am not loving a country which high officials from army and other people are highly supporting Israel and US pro-Israel people.
I love Russia.
I even dislike my maternal language (romanian) because so many romance words in it.

Of course yes. There are various reasons...

1.Historical reasons:

Republic of Turkey is heir of two great old superpowers, Seljuks and Ottomans. They were above many of their peer civilisations, even according to Maxime Rodinson, if Geographical Explores of late 15.th century wouldn't happen, Ottoman civilisation was the closest one for reaching "Capitalist civilisation" level of Marx's template. Both of those empires were defender and represantive of the Orient and Islam against the West. Moreover, creator of Republic of Turkey was a pioneer for Anti-Imperialist, secular, progressive and nationalist movements in the oppressed part of the World. Leaders like Mohammed Ali Jinnah, Messali Hadj and Habib Bourgiba admired and imitated Atatürk. Even there is an Atatürk statue in La Habana, which was built with Castro's order. Not to forget, Hugo Chavez re-named one of the greatest avenues in Caracas as "Kemal Atatürk Avenue". If you want further information about how Chavez and Atatürk are associated with each other by Venezuelan political experts and Venezuelan media, you can read "Hugo Chavez and Bolivarian Revolution" by Richard Gott.

2.Natural reasons:

Cappadocia, Pamukkale, Erciyes, Aegean coast, cool and windy hills of Adana when people go for escaping from heat, Palandöken, Ağrı mount, forests of various regions(myself, I study in an university, where you can see forests and beautiful Black Sea at the same time!)

3.Beautiful cities:

İstanbul, where is an exact bridge, is a place to have fun and dance in discos of Beyoğlu, go and listen to nature in Çatalca or Sarıyer, also go and see old city in Sultanahmet at the same time :) Konya is also an old city, you can enjoy Seljuk history and taste delicious food(etli ekmek, fırın kebabı). Antalya is a city where you can go and swim in Med sea and go and play snowball in mountains in the same day. There are many other examples for our beautiful cities, I only counted three.

4.People:

We have hospitable and warm people honestly. Also as a person who participated in recent "Republic Parades" in 29.th October and 10.th November, I know this people is loyal to their history. It is connected to historical reasons BTW, Turkish people fought with bare feet and even with farm tools in some regions, during War of Independence.

Also I remember a quote from a movie:

"If you really love somewhere, than there is the most beautiful place of the World for you."

Period :)

Yes I am pro Jewish. Is that a sin? :picard1:

Between 1933 and 1945 we comitted the biggest genocide in history (and if you hate Jews so much, notice that the Slavs were considered as "Untermenschen" and massacred, too...), lost 33% of our territory, a big percentage of our architectonical heritage and population, and were utterly and totally defeated as a nation.

Comitting the biggest evil ever and being humilated and crippled for this - no nation can have any spirit after that. Germany is a dead, big stone, an economic bubble without a soul. It is not even a shadow of the Holy Roman Empire or the German Reich under Bismarck.

After the Wall Street collapse in the 1920s Germany was one of the countries that was mostly affected. I do agree with you by the way that more Europeans died than Jews during WW2.

Not really. From 1933-1945 everyone was scared of the Germans. Germany was considered a superpower and has taken land from other European nations. Even the U.S ignored everything that was happening in Europe at the time because they couldn't fight alone against Germany. They needed back up from Russia.

I love the United States, mainly for what it WAS , not for what is has become. The US is still the world's first Constitutional Republic, but those who wanted it to be what the founders had no intention of creating, a democracy, started tampering with the Constitution before the ink was dry.

It was never intended to be a Socialist welfare state and it cannot retain its identity if it fully becomes one. The United States became great through the application of a work ethic. Now it coddles idle parasites. Still, so many regard it as the Land of Opportunity that there is a persistent problem with illegal immigration.

Roll your eyes if you will, but I still think that Americans are the most altruistic and generous people on Earth. When there is a major natural disaster, to whom do its victims turn for help ? To the Germans ?, the French ? the British ? to the Russians ? to the Chinese ? HARDLY !

You know who is Johnny-on-the-spot with aid, the Americans. Of what nationality have the vast majority of the great philanthropists been ?
Americans. This is not to deny for a moment that our foreign policy since World war II has been abominable. I cannot and will not try to apologise for that.

I love my country's rolling prairies, its majestic mountains, its awe-inspiring canyons. "This is my own, my native land." It is in my blood; it is in my soul.
It is here that I belong. It is here that I have put down my roots like a sturdy oak tree. I have seen its beauties and they have enchained my heart, overwhelming and obliterating the squalor of its cities.

I am appalled to imagine how much may be lost in the pursuit of a specious egalitarianism. Is it, I wonder, too much to hope that common sense may triumph over superficial sophistication, and that we may again come to appreciate, cherish, and embrace those values which made us great ?

Come on, this pessimistic attitude isn't of any use.
After WW II we were divided in occupation zones, and even in the 1980s no one believed there would be one Germany again.
Yet today Germany is reunited and probably as strong as it never was before since the 2nd half of the 20th century.
Of the problems we have today none is unsolvable, either.

At the end of the day the U.S has no solution, in my opinion it will be a melting pot in the coming years and there is no turning back from that disaster.

The US HAS BEEN a melting pot. In the late 19th and early 20th century, immigrants from Europe came to the US intending to become AMERICANS, to be assimilated, and, for many, to become citizens, NOT to remain obstinately
alien, NOT to perpetuate their lives in their homelands, but to make a new start in a new land.

THAT was the melting pot. What we have today is the salad bowl. The ingredients remain distinctively different because the immigrants, legal or illegal, of today do not WANT to be assimilated . They want the social and economic advantages of being Americans without becoming Americans. Instead of going to night school as their predecessors did to learn English, they DEMAND that government publications be available to them in e.g., Spanish.

This implies that they have no intention of EVER becoming U.S. citizens or EVER joining the mainstream of the American public, but rather, of remaining a permanently alien element in the population.

It is long since time that we set quotas for immigrants based on what they have to contribute to US. We have enough "wretched refuse". The rest of the world can keep its "huddled masses" . If they "yearn...to breathe free[ly]", let them reform their own countries and breathe freely there.

Oh yes, pretty much. I'm a patriot, I love my Pátria.
This is the land where live my people, my ancestors for at least 3000 years but we can add another 3000. It's a beautiful place, we call it "Garden by the sea" because it is always green and beautiful we have a mild climate and sufficient moisture to be a big green spot with lots of forests. We inherit a vibrant folk, architecture, gastronomy and culture that make us unique. We inherit one of the most fantastic histories, we ruled the world in 2 waves, we gave the world to the world, we are brave yet a very peaceful and cool society.
I believe nowadays ordeal didn't came by accident, but in what concerns us, we are fully aware of our mistakes and I believe we will rise again, not to rule the world but to live primus inter pares with our neighbors.

Another thing that I love about the Portuguese is that we are undoubtedly fully European, we aren't moors neither whatsoever African to the great unhappiness of a few twisted minds.

That's us, the Portuguese:

I respect most of the traditional culture and the history. But do not care for any of the polticians and many of my compatriots, and for the compatriots i do like, i pity them for having to live in the country.

My arteries are German-German, my veins are Austrian-German so all my blood circulation is German. I'm proud of my two countries, our history and one day they shall be one again. http://i729.photobucket.com/albums/ww299/ocpetersen/GermanSmiley.gifI also take pride in the Habsburg Empire and their previous influence to throw the Ottomans out of Europe.

We Germans are the crown of Europe. Culture, Arts, Inventions, Economy, Wealth, Science, Music, Technology or Philosophy are unmatched markers of our worldwide influence and importance.

I have a diverse opinion

I dislike the Europe in General, but I like some of the Rights and Freedoms I enjoy here. Also im relatively secure. I dont like the General Feelings of the Populations towards me because of my ethnic Background, the xenophobia, discrimination. I cant say in Serbia, India or anywhere else I would be better off. I think I wouldnt.

If I could have a Country of my Choice it would be the USA. But just from Phantasy. Ive never been there or experience IRL what it means to live there and deal with them.

Don`t expect the US to be different in this regard. It is the most race conscious nation on earth.

I do, very much.
However, I have a huge lack of faith and utmost disdain on it's leadership, to a nearly visceral hate.

Jordan: I love the level of tolerance towards all groups in a region filled with conflict. The country as a whole has a very humane attitude. The social aspect of the people is great. A country where one can make true friends.

UK (specifically England): I am extremely grateful to the UK for offering me a world class education, a second home and perhaps one could say a second chance. Unfortunately I cannot see myself ever fully becoming part of English society as there are some boundaries that I will never cross.

Chechnya: Life is everchanging, but the single constant that has never changed in my entire life is my undying love for my homeland and the dream of a future for my people.

well, i was born in canada and i certainly do love the country itself. it's a wonderful place.

i think europe is truly my home, though. im also equal parts japanese and hungarian (12.5% both) but although i like japan, i feel a higher affinity for hungary being pretty much completely european in total myself. i've been to hungary, germany and the netherlands (the netherlands more :P) many times and i love it. i'd love to travel there for an extended time, or study there, or live there :)

now, if i love the governments, politics, or social movements, current (social) climate, or X Y Z, that is much more complex and a different story :P

I like the USA, but I do have problems living here, such as the over-emphasis people put here on just work, instead of actually living life, and the overall barrenness of American culture.

I am sentimental towards what my ancestors thought it was and stood for, the country my colonial ancestors helped found, and the opportunity it gave my more recently-arriving ancestors escaping economic hardship in Europe.

However, I do not feel for what has become its ethos.

I like American history and I am proud that my ancestors played a role in it, gave their lives to molding it according to their vision and fought and died for it. I do not have much love for modern America though. It is morally bankrupt, destroys cultures, diversity and nature, and spreads the Coka-Colacaust everywhere it sets its gaze. It pains me to live in such an age but it is my home. Maybe things will change.

My country of birth - no. The landscape is wonderful but the society is horrible.
My homeland - yes :)
