Question

1. Explain the concept of Nationalism and what effects Nationalism had during the Age of Revolutions

Answer 1

Answer:

The rise and spread of nationalism gave people a new sense of identity and also led to an increased sense of competition among nation-states. Nationalism bonds people together in a way that is not genetic, not biological, and not based on even having a personal connection with other members of your nation. In some ways the idea of a nation is actually an imaginary relationship and nations could be considered imagined communities because so much of the making of a nation is about creating unity and loyalty in our minds. It is not enough to just have a common government to make a nation we must have shared cultural symbols like flags, national anthems, a shared idea of the history of our nations to create and build a community of a nation.
