Nationalism and the Creation of Italy

Nationalism is a people's view on how they could help improve their nation's economy and love their nation rather than other countries.
I am Nationalistic because I am thinking only on what I can do for my country, and I'm devoted to it in many ways above all others. I show that I'm a Nationalistic because I respect the flag of our country by singing our "National Anthem" and following its political laws.

Italy was a nation that was built after the nationalism destroyed the empires. And before Italy became Italy, the country was ruled by Austria. But the people who live there started to get bored and tired of their country, so they figured they could make their own nation-state.
And because of that certain idea, the leaders who are; Camille Cavour and Guiseppe Garibaldi, planned to guide their people and make their own nation-state.
Together they had united the South and North Italy after they had took hold of it from Austria. But still people weren't acting like a family or a nation even it became a nation-state. So Massimo d-Azeglio started a parliamentary meeting, on which he had said that, "We should start to make Italians, since we have already made Italy."
