Why I’m Proud of my Country

Authors note: I wrote this to tell you the reason why I am proud of my country.

Are you proud of your country? Well I am of my country. The United States of America started from scratch. Since then our country has survived and thrived for hundreds of years. Over coming bad economies, terrorist attacks from other countries and wars that almost tore America apart. The thing that makes America strong is our ability to move forward. When the great depression was taking Americans jobs, homes, and businesses what did we do? We pulled out of it and made more jobs bought more things and became in a better economic state.

As one country we have the freest country in the world. Of course we still have laws but we have freedom of speech and many other laws that give us rights that we deserve. A lot of countries don’t offer that. Our government is one of the best in the world with a president and many other officials that decide what is right for our country. Even though sometimes they are totally wrong and it ends up backfiring on us. But we always find a way to make it work.

Our achievements are great America as has the best military in the world with Naval commanders and Special Op teams. Along with that I believe we have the strongest will power of any country. After 9/11 we were shocked but we said our goodbyes and always will remember the victims in our hearts. Then what did we do after that? We went in Afghanistan to show the terrorist that this doesn’t fly by with the US. What do you know in a few years we found the man responsible and shot him in the face. I would like to see another country do that.

As Americans we give others that live in this great country a chance to worship any God or object of their choosing. The US is one of the few countries that allow freedom of religion. Many other countries have religion restrictions. But we don’t.

These are the reasons why I am proud of my country. Not because country music was invented here or that or national pastime is baseball. It’s that we have a strong Army, government, and some of the best people living here. America is a Nation that is United with the world.
