And yet somehow the reality is a "mistery" to you. Language isn't culture. If it was you wouldn't have the sort of Chinese-gate tik-tok nonsense happening right now.

Also English people do not make up the United Kingdom. Nor do they constitute the entirety of British influence. But that's a trivial matter to a world expert such as yourself, who can't even remain consistent in a baseless rant.

The distinction between English and British in my comment was intentional. The unique style of self-infatuation expressed in the parent comment is quintessentially English (white English, to be even more precise); not Scottish, Irish, or Welsh.

British people in "love their country" shocker! It might be less apparent online, but with my hand on my heart I can promise you that people from all the nations of the union share my conviction. It might not be universal, but we'll take our odd, sentimental, sometimes eccentric culture over a bland globalised republicanism any day, thanks.
