  Nationalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nationalism is an ideology which holds that the nation, ethnicity or national identity is a fundamental unit of human social life, and makes certain political claims based on that belief, above all the claim that the nation is the only legitimate basis for the state and that each nation is entitled to its own state.
Nations have national symbols, a national character, a national culture, a national music and national literature, national folklore, a national mythology and - in some cases - even a national religion.
The nation state is intended to guarantee the existence of a nation, to preserve its distinct identity, and to provide a territory where the national culture and ethos are dominant.
