NEW UNIT: GLOBAL NATIONALISM
During the French Revolution, people in
France expressed great pride in their nation.
Nationalism later spread to other peoples,
inspiring uprisings across Europe and Latin
America. In the 1860s, nationalism led to the
unification of Italy. By 1871, Germany had
also united. Outside Europe, nationalistic
movements took root in India, Turkey, and
elsewhere. Among Jews, a movement arose
to create a separate Jewish state in
Palestine. As the 1800s drew to a close,
nationalistic forces created tensions in the
Balkans that set the state for world war.
