Many people talks about our "glorious" past, and honestly thinks we unique nation, who are more talented & successful, than anyone else. These ppl thinks Hungarian culture is more developed than other nations & we naver made mistakes in the past.
I don't like to hear we are so awesome bc Hungary is becoming poorer and poorer, but people talks about "we were so mighty and important". i tried to write an intelligent comment, but maybe i failed.

Spaniards tend to be more arrogant because they have a lot more internal problems and divisions that are non-existent in Portugal, such as regional nationalities, rivalries and identities (like Castilla and Catalonia per example). Spaniards are very friendly and easy to handle in most cases anyway.
If people are going to take Portuguese TA members as an example for the average Portuguese then you are completely wrong. Most Portuguese members in here are nationalist and obviously can get pretty arrogant when having an argument. However (and unfortunately) we represent only a little fringe of the population. Average Portuguese couldn't care less about such debates and would warmly welcome anyone who is interested in Portugal.

Here are my reasons:
Portugese and Spaniards: I find Iberians incredibly prideful and arrogant in a civilised manner. Based both on my real life and frum interactions. They seem to feel superior and very proud about their history/archivements
Montenegrins: incredibly arrogant and proud, obsessed with honor and glory. I adore them Montengero small size just add to their pride. Every other Montenegrin is of noble heritage....what to add ?
Greeks: ofcourse, natural pride of Hellenic civilisation that created west. And I think being surrounded by less developed nations adds to their arrogance. I would say Greeks simply feel superior and measure world according to their own standards
Russians: arrogance that comes from such large and powerful country, being treated with suspicion by other Europeans and at same time having glorious victories and archivements. Russians I have met confirm my opinion
Scotts: British Montenegrins. Small and prideful, Scots I met trully looked down on English and I find it hillarious
I can confirm Portugese don't have real southern mentality, they are more introverted and less expressive than Spaniards. But those I met,were even even more prideful than Spaniards. I find your people extremely proud of Portugal and it's culture/past. Calm quiet arrogance.
