if you are referring to people being incredibly proud of their family line, going back a few hundred years, to a country and culture that they have never expierenced, then yes..
it does happen... There are people who will say they are Italian, when in actuality they may only be 1/3 italian and have never set foot in Italy (or Europe) in their lives..
i never really attributed this to a region though... more of a person trying to be proud of their family and their roots, even if they don't know much about it..
