USA
Beautiful wild areas in my country, some of which are protected (for now) Freedom of speech and of religion, (alleged) rule of the people rather than dictators, kings, queens, etc. The fact that our country was founded by revolutionaries demanding that each generation revolt anew to keep the system honest
We are an experiement in high ideals and human nature and a very young country without a lot of cultural identity as a whole. This last parts not my favorite but I had to throw in it because theres so much utter BS in the current administration and blind pride in my country that I think alot of folks missed their US history lesson 101

1. I am an Indian.
2. About my country :

Home to the Indus Valley Civilization, a centre of important trade routes and vast empires, India has long played a major role in human history. Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism and Jainism all have their origins in India, while Islam and Christianity enjoy a strong cultural heritage.

India has a rich and unique cultural heritage, and has managed to preserve its established traditions throughout history whilst absorbing customs, traditions and ideas from both invaders and immigrants. Many cultural practices, languages, customs and monuments are examples of this co-mingling over centuries. Famous monuments, such as the Taj Mahal and other examples of Islamic-inspired architecture have been inherited from the Mughal dynasty. These are the result of a syncretic tradition that combined elements from all parts of the country.

India is also known as a land of festivals. A melting pot of many religions, India has a rich diversity of festivals, many of which are celebrated irrespective of caste and creed. The most widely known and popular celebrations include the Hindu festivals of Diwali, Holi, Pongal and Dussehra and the Muslim celebration of Eid.

A number of festivals are common to most parts of India; however, they may be called by different names in the various parts of the country or may be celebrated in a different fashion and style. India has three National Holidays. Other sets of holidays, varying from nine to twelve, pertain to festivals, religious holidays and births of leaders which are legislated by the individual states.

What else I can say about this great land of the caption "Unity in Diversity"

There are many more best things about my country that I cannot define. "MERA BHARAT MAHAAN"

Everyone likes their own mother land so don't scold me if you are not Indian.

Hope you like this.
