"Nationalism is the belief that one's greatest loyalty should not be to a king or a empire but but to a nation of people who share a common history or culture." People today are still very nationalistic. Such as my family and many families around the world. I am nationalistic in many ways due to the fact that i share the same nationality, cultural beliefs ,language, history ,religion, and even territory with others. Nationalism was used to create the nation of Italy.In 1815 and 1848,Italians didn't want to live under the foreign rulers no longer. So in 1852 a man named Camillo di Cavour decided to unify the nations or city states of Italy. Cavour achieved his goal and Italy is now a nationalistic country.
