Nationalism and The Creation of Italy

The word Nationalism could mean many things. It could mean supporting your nation, belonging to your nation, and fighting for your nation. However there is one more thing you need to be Nationalistic, you have to love your country. Nationalism is everywhere in the United States. Americans speak the same language (English), support troops in War, celebrate American Holidays (such as the 4th of July), and even root for Americans in the Olympics. One example to show that I'am Nationalistic is that, I always have a 4th of July Party at my house to celebrate America's Independence Day.

Nationalism helped create Italy to be the independent nation we know today. When Nationalism broke apart Empires, it also created new ones. Italy was once in an Empire.
