national pride
Love of homeland
National pride is a sense of satisfaction and attachment to one's country—its achievements, culture, history, or values.
It can manifest as quiet appreciation or fervent patriotism: The Olympic medal ceremony swelled her with national pride.
National pride often intensifies during international competitions, military victories, or moments of collective accomplishment.
Critics note it can tip into nationalism or blind loyalty, while defenders see it as healthy civic attachment.
