Nationalism is everywhere and are expressed in different ways.Nationalism is when people take pride in their country or nationality. What makes a country nationalist is when they all speak a similar language or share common customs or religion. Nationalism can be as simple as having same currency of money. Another way nationalism can be shown is the type of food the people eat and their nations anthem.
Italy is a nation and was formed by nationalism. Before Italy became a country it was first ruled by Austria. In the early and middle years of the 1800's Italians started to disobey the rule of the Australians, and they though that they should be loyal to the ruler. Some revolts broke out, and some failed. A man named Cavour helped unite Italy. Because of Cavour they won several battles, and he also helped nationalistic rebels win. He was able to drive Austrian forces away in order to take over territory and gain power. Cavour was an important person in history for uniting the nation of Italy.
