Nationalism

Nationalism it has a meaning of hate. Hate of other culture, or religion.Nationalism started a very long time ago. Well one time nationalism happened in one continent that was one big country, but everybody had a different language so the separated all the nations in that country and made it into 51 countries because they had different cultures. In Europe each country that was separated have their own land which has the same language in that country each country has a different language for instance Russia speaks Russian, and Romania speaks Romanian, and Germany speaks German. Nationalism is a way of offending somebody or hating someone by their nationality, culture, and religion. Nationalism is a bad thing because you really hurt somebodies feelings, or if it is A country with nationalism, and another without nationalism, it will cause a war between those countries.Nationalism is really sad I feel sorry for the people that use nationalism.
