Patriot:

Patriotism is love of and/or devotion to one’s country. The word comes from the Greek patris, meaning fatherland. Patriotism has had different meanings over time, and its meaning is highly dependent upon context, geography and philosophy. Many contemporary notions of patriotism are influenced by 19th century ideas about nationalism. During the 19th century, “being patriotic” became increasingly conflated with nationalism, and even jingoism. However, some notions of contemporary patriotism reject nationalism in favor of a more classic version of the idea of patriotism which includes social responsibility.
