 And what is it with this National pride bit?

It frees the national spirit and soul.  It's a high.
The emergence of nationalism in any group seems to
lead to a drive to independence.  Within the emerging
group are planted the seeds of sub or fringe racial
groups seeking their own nationalist aims.  Soviet Union
break up is an example.  As much as Quebec nationalists
practice denial, their movement has opened the door
to sub nationalist within their midst.  After that happens
the dominant group expends energy controlling the rebellious
groups. It's perfectly normal.
