I think just about everyone "brags" about their country. I'm sure you brag about America, too. Because I KNOW you brag about Houston Mr-I'm-from-Houston-and-we-have-a-space-center-and-other-stuff-that-nobody-gives-a-crap-about. But, actually, instead of bragging, you could call it patriotism. Except when you excessively say how great it is, and how other places aren't as good or something. Just a thought.
