Nationalism and the Creation of Italy

Nationalism is beautiful it shows the respect and honor you give for your country. Nationalism is when you give lots of pride to a country and are able to sacrifice for it. It can be your birth country or the country of your parents if they migrated from somewhere else or a country that you just simply want. Nationalism also is when you and your people share the same culture and history of your country and support your people and your country.Nationalism was used to create the nation of Italy because while it destroyed empires it also built nations. Italy was one of the countries form from the crumbling empires. Before this country was created it used to be a kingdom until 1946. After 1946 Italians voted for a republican constitution which included the entire Italian Peninsula.
