The correct option is C

The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States ('XIV Amendment') is one of the post-Civil War amendments, and includes, among others, the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause. It was proposed on June 13, 1866, and ratified on July 9, 1868. The amendment provides a broad definition of national citizenship, which annuls the decision of Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857), who had excluded slaves and their descendants, from possessing constitutional rights. It requires states to provide equal protection before the law to all persons (not just citizens) within their jurisdictions. The importance of the Fourteenth Amendment was exemplified when it was interpreted to prohibit racial segregation in public schools in the Brown v. Case. Board of Education.

Ultra nationalism might be defined as a nationalism that turns to discrimination and/or violence as means to confirm national superiority over outsiders and other nations in general.

You have examples of that in Mussolini's fascism, in Italy.

A rarely used example of the case is the Japanese ultra nationalism under the during the era of the emperor Hirohito, who was not involved in politics, leaving the command of the nation to the Japanese military leaders.

You can also find examples during the World Wars in Canada and the USA, considering the concentration camps where both countries left people of Japanese descent. In Canada, during the WWI, they even sold the properties of the Japanese Canadians to pay for the concentration camps.
