NATIONALISM AND THE CREATION OF ITALY

My definiation of nationalism is a movement of a nation which from your nationality can determine like where you come from and how you know that you are that specific nationality.Like me being in America and knowing im a american from my social security number shows that im nationalistic because im a citizen of the U.S.A. Well to show that im nationalistic i go to church every sunday thats how i show im nationalistic. I also say the pledge of allegines.Before nationalism people knew nothing of their own nation knew was of their own lord they we're loyal to. When nationalism hit, people started to unify, ones with same culture, and same language.This very thing happened in Italy where the people we're starting to question there loyality. From that they started forming their own nation. In 1832 and idealistic Italian man called Giuseppe Mazzini started his own nationalistic group with which he was planning to create nation states, in hope of bringing peace to Italy.
