Similar the saying on the USA "God bless America", do other nations have their own versions that show love of their countries?


  For example, I believe that in the UK, it's either "God save the Queen" or "Long live the Queen", and in Mexico, it may be "Viva México".


 For clarification, I’m not asking about other countries making statements about the United States, it’s about statements they have showing their love of their own countries.

    Oouchh!
    That bites and hurts.
    That is a terrible thing to say about any country, especially ours!!
    It doesn't surprise me, though.
    Do they have anything positive to say about their own country, leaving us out of it? This post was edited by Merlin at May 11, 2020 10:42 AM MDT

    We are not well-loved (or even loved) in most of the Middle East, so I'm not surprised that's how they feel.  I'm not sure they have anything positive to say about anything.

     I have have just edited my question for clarification that I’m not asking about other countries making statements about the United States, it’s about their own love of their countries.

    I stand by my original comment.  Iran loves itself by hating America.

    We do traditionally say, or rather sing, 'God save the Queen' but technically its meaning and purpose is arguably slightly different I feel. It's not really a popular saying nowadays.
