its the natural feeling of competiion and want for those who share a background wiht you to do well...
frankly in this day and age governments and people take "patriotism" to mean nationalism and in turn racism, which is just wrong.
Nationalism is seen as a "dirty" word these days... but it shouldnt be. Nationalism itself is fine,but in history people have taken it too far and done veyr bad things in its name.
