A Germanophile, Teutonophile, or Teutophile[1] is a person who is fond of German culture, German people and Germany in general,[2] or who exhibits German patriotism in spite of not being either an ethnic German or a German citizen. The love of the German way, called "Germanophilia" or "Teutonophilia", is the opposite of Germanophobia.[3]
