Read the source and answer the following questions.

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 political and

constitutional changes that came in the wake of the French Revolution led

to the transfer of sovereignty from the monarchy to a body of French

citizens. The revolution proclaimed that it was the people who would

henceforth constitute the nation and shape its destiny.

From the very beginning, the French revolutionaries introduced various

measures and practices that could create a sense of collective identity

amongst the French people. The ideas of la patrie (the fatherland) and le

citoyen (the citizen) emphasised the notion of a united community

enjoying equal rights under a constitution. A new French flag, the

tricolour, was chosen to replace the former royal standard. The Estates

General was elected bythe body of active citizens and renamed the

National Assembly. New hymns were composed, oaths taken and martyrs

commemorated, all in the name of the nation. A centralized administrative

system was put in place and it formulated uniform laws for all citizens

within its territory. Internal customs duties and dues were abolished and a

uniform system of weights and measures was adopted. Regional dialects

were discouraged and French, as it was spoken and written in Paris,

became the common language of the nation,
