hey mate!!!!
Explanation:
Your answer
The first clear expression of nationalism came with
the French Revolution in 1789. France, as you
would remember, was a full-fledged territorial state
in 1789 under the rule of an absolute monarch.
The revolution proclaimed
that it was the people who would henceforth
constitute the nation and shape its destiny.
The revolutionaries further declared that it was the mission and the
destiny of the French nation to liberate the peoples of Europe
from despotism, in other words to help other peoples of Europe
to become nations.
When the news of the events in France reached the different cities
of Europe, students and other members of educated middle classes
began setting up Jacobin clubs. Their activities and campaigns
prepared the way for the French armies which moved into Holland,
Belgium, Switzerland and much of Italy in the 1790s. With the
outbreak of the revolutionary wars, the French armies began to
carry the idea of nationalism abroad.
In many places like Holland, Switzerland the French army was initially welcomed
a. But later the French imperialistic designs outweighed the advantages.
b. Areas occupied by the French were made subservient to the French needs.
c. Imposition of Censorship.
d. Increased taxation, forced conscription .
