<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>
The third estate was made up of middle and lower class of the French population, making 98% of the total population. The other two estates were the Clergy (religious institutions) and the Nobility, the first and second estates respectively. Each group met and were able to vote and discuss the direction of the country. After the Seven Years War, the French economy was decimated and the third estate suffered reparations as the other two estates did not have to pay taxes and were granted certain privileges. Because of the two estates not being tasked with any burdens, the third estate was constantly outvoted and out-voiced by the other two, and this caused a strong desire for a political change from the current circumstances that made it difficult for the third estate to thrive and live.
