Nationalism & The Creation Of Italy

*What is Nationalism?
Nationalism: is basically when the people of your nation share common beliefs and cultures. Meaning that they share the same language, similar relgion , currency etc. I am nationalistic because I share the same language as my friends and we have the same currency. We do this because we all live in America. What I do that proves that I am Nationalistic is that when I buy things I use dollars(American money) and also when I am in school I speak English.
* Creation of Italy!
Italy use to be part of the Hungarian Empire. the Hungarin empire also had a couple other countries as well. After World War I , the countires that made up this empire wanted to have there own language and country. So they seperated and then Italy became Italy, aswell as Hungary, Germany, Czech, serbia etc. Before this happened though Italy wasnt really Italy. The other countries that made up the Austro Hungarian Empire also all shared the same culture, language and beliefs. After they sepearted thats when they became there own nations with there own government and belief.
