Quartering Act, (1765), in American colonial history, the British parliamentary provision (actually an amendment to the annual Mutiny Act) requiring colonial authorities to provide food, drink, quarters, fuel, and transportation to British forces stationed in their towns or villages. Resentment over this practice is reflected in the Third Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which forbids it in peacetime.

How is nationalism shown today?

crimeas [40]

<span>Where I see nationalism portrayed most in America today is every year at the Navy-Army football game. Every single person at the game has a sense of pride in this country because they or one of their loved ones has served or died for it. It is more than a game its a gathering of people who want to honor the military service members. The best example of this at the game is after all the points are scored and the game is over both teams gather in the endzone and sing. They sing there school fight songs to the cadets and the midshipman and it brings many fans to tears because this is the point where they realize that all these young men and women stand for something more.</span>
