Do Americans feel more patriotic toward their own State or America?
America as a whole. unless you're retarded
America as a whole.
State nationalism is solved sports.

Do you think Californians and Texans who are from very relevant States feel also more patriotic to America as a whole too?
>>68434496
Texas yes, but also about the state on an slightly lower level.
California yes.

We are patriotic for America. Interstate banter is common though, but it's just banter. No one actually cares about it.

It's a complicated question. Apart from the east coast American state borders are mostly arbitrary and meaningless, so in the west it's more region than state you identify with.
Most people would say they're American above all else, I would not, as my state existed long before the US was created. Doesn't mean I believe secessionist crap but I don't feel comfortable with a one-size-fits-all "American" label being applied to me. I don't eat burgers or care about the rest of the states nor like most of them.

I think this kind of "state patriotism" exists in every federal country.

France is a centralistic shithole and you will see Bretons, Basques, Alsacians, Corsicans maybe even Normands feel more patriotic to their region than France.

America as a whole. I am kindof proud of being from Boston and living in one of the most intelligent areas on Earth.

Texas is probably the only state I can think of that would be more proud to be from Texas than America.
Are there states that feel more patriotic, more pride towards Dixieland rather than United States as a whole?
>>68434339
America as a whole. State patriotism still exists (at least, for big or important states like Texas, California, New York, or D.C., but it takes a distant second place to national patriotism and most of it died out during the Reconstruction Era (that was the period after the Civil War, during which the often practically-sovereign states were firmly unified under the central government).

I don't think so. They love being southern faggots but they're American through and through.
>>68435359
Well, Texas is kind of like that. But for Texas it's more like Texas>Dixie>America.
Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi tend to be like that though.
