explain the growth of modern nationalism in Europe
Answers
Decline if feudal system is the main cause of modern nationalism in Europe
The rise of nationalism in Europe initiated with the Spring of Nations in 1848. Nationalism was the ideological impetus that, in a few decades, transformed Europe. Rule by monarchies and foreign control of territory was replaced by self-determination and newly formed national governments.
A nation may be described as a community having a common homeland, a common culture and common traditions. European nationalism, in its modern sense, was born out of the desire of a community to assert its unity and independence. In the 19th century there began a determined struggle to realise nationalist aspirations. The French Revolution had inspired people all over Europe. It spread the ideas of liberty, equality and fraternity and generated the spirit of nationalism. Napoleon, though he established a monarchy in France, carried forward the revolutionary ideals of equality and nationalism.
