I think most Germans don't dare to say "We are proud to be German" because it always arouses negative associations.
I know that we cannot be proud at all about the Nazi area; I really,really detest what happend then (but I don't think that's a topic to be discused here)

But why can't we be proud of the development of the last decades or the great historical people (Goethe, Schiller, Bach,...) which were all Germans?!

I'm proud to be German (in the most positive meaning)
