^ what i mean is that a farmer from France will have difficulties to decide whether he stands on a french or a german or wherever field, still he is proud of "his" ground he thinks he is on.
Humans are formed by their surroundings, so man can of course also change attitude, his understanding and perception of culture.

No you did not mention genetics, i just used this to explain a difference between the "hard wiring" and what can be changed by surroundings. (b.t.w. new research shows that genetics can react to surroundings a lot more and faster than it was supposed before - but this has nothing to do with this thread).

If someone stands on his field and is proud of his country, this attitude can change. It is not hard-wired. I doubt there is a natural-born englishman.
