statriotism

A fierce sense of loyalty to one's home state, coined from "STATe" + "patRIOTISM"
This loyalty, such as that expressed by New Yorkers, Californians or (God forbid!) Texans, may even surpass one's love of nation.

New Yorkers showed fierce statriotism just after September 11th, especially through bearing the slogan "I (Heart) NY"
