I don't really want to defend nationalism, but to play devil's advocate: is it rational to be proud if the company you work for is successful?

In the widest sense, a nation is like a company. You could argue all it's members contribute to making it the place it is. If it brings forth a field medal winner, it might be a result of the favourable conditions you helped creating.
