I'm Greek. Should I be proud or ashamed?
Ok, Greeks did a lot of cool stuff back in the bronze age. They built the basis of some mathematical procedures, literature, democracy, and lots of other stuff. Plus Alexander the Great conquered a lot of the known world.
But today Greece is hardly even noticed as a country. It has no military, no economy, and too many cigarettes. And most of the Greeks have abandoned Greek Mythology. So should I be proud or ashamed?
