That's the point where you can get in trouble - where an interest in history becomes an over-inflated point of pride.
It's an us vs. them situation - first, you have pride in what you are and think that's okay; second, you decide the others are wrong; third, you try to convince them. It seems to easy for it to blow out of all proportion and become something much nastier.
