"Nationalism is an ideology which holds that the nation, ethnicity or national identity is a "fundamental unit" of human social life, and makes certain political claims based upon that belief; above all, the claim that the nation is "the only legitimate basis for the state", and that "each nation is entitled to its own state"."Originally Posted by Gelatinous Cube
"The nationals (the members of the "nation") are distinguished by a common identity, and almost always by a common origin, in the sense of ancestry, parentage or descent. The national identity refers both to the distinguishing features of the group, and to the individual’s sense of belonging to it."
Well for one to consider the EUROPEAN (mainly but also others) COLONISTS of the Northern America to be part of or constitute a nation without having a practically viable claim to history language or separate cultural development. Then the Total War global community composes a nation of Totalwarers who have about 100 languages and dialects, have "history" of roughly 6 years and live on the Planet earth.
