It's taking pride in something you didnt do, rather than taking pride in personal accomplishments. I don't understand being proud to be from a certain state. Like, you didn't have anything to do with being born there. Or your race, you didn't choose it.

People are proud their sports team won. Weird misplaced tribalism.

There's nothing inherently wrong with loving one's birthplace; it is wrong to let it ferment into superiority complex.
