Nationalism
Nationalism, is a non-quad, culturally ambigious ideology, specifically a Values ball representing Nationalism in general without a specific country attached. It usually refers to a strong affinity or loyalty to ones own national identity or ethnicity. It is not to be confused with Patriotism, which refers to loyalty to ones own country.
Nation may also be used to represent a type of "Pan-Separatist Nationalism" which believes that the nation-states are good within itself and every nation should have its own nation-state, under this interpretation he might be also called Souverainism or Sovereignty.
Differences between patriotism, nationalism, and ultra nationalism
Patriotism, nationalism, and ultranationalism are terms often used in discussions about loyalty, identity, and love for one's country. While there can be some overlap in their meanings, they represent distinct concepts with different levels of intensity and implications. Here's an explanation of each term:
Patriotism: Patriotism is a sense of pride, loyalty, and affection towards one's country. It involves a deep connection and emotional attachment to the nation, its history, culture, and values. Patriots have a strong desire to contribute positively to their country and may support its symbols, traditions, and institutions.
Nationalism: Nationalism goes beyond patriotism and often implies a more intense and exclusive form of loyalty to one's nation. It places significant emphasis on the nation's interests, sovereignty, and collective identity. Nationalists believe in the primacy of their nation and may prioritize its needs and goals over international considerations.
Ultranationalism: Ultranationalism represents an extreme and often radical form of nationalism. It is characterized by an intense and fanatical devotion to one's nation, coupled with an aggressive and often militaristic stance towards perceived threats or rivals. Ultranationalists typically reject cultural diversity and advocate for strict homogeneity, often at the expense of minority rights. This ideology can manifest in xenophobia, extreme nationalism, and a disregard for international norms or cooperation. Ultranationalism can potentially lead to aggressive policies, conflicts, or acts of violence against other nations or minority groups within a country

Anti-Colonial Nationalism
See also: Left-Wing Nationalism
Anti-Colonial Nationalism is a form of nationalism that focuses on decolonization and anti-imperialism. Because of colonialism’s creation of state and country lines across ethnic, religious, linguistic and other historical boundaries, anti-colonial nationalism is largely related to land first. After independence, especially in countries with particularly diverse populations with historic enmity, there have been a series of smaller independence movements that are also defined by anti-colonialism.

See also: Bismarckism
German Nationalism is a form of nationalism that began to develop in the 1800s within the German Confederation. It became quite popular during the Enlightenment, where more and more educated Germans started striving towards a unified nation-state as in most of Europe by that point (and most recently Italian unification). The fist attempt at a German nation-state was the German Empire (1848-1849), which tried to establish a
liberal and democratic unified Germany but failed. After this, a race of influence began where both
Austria and
Prussia tried to consolidate their power in the German states to establish a unified Germany under their rule.
Prussia would eventually succeed, establishing the first ever unified German nation-state, the
German Empire, in 1871.

See also: Nazism
After losing World War I, German Nationalism skyrocketed, this lead to many new radical ideologies being thought up, most of which involving a form of Ultranationalism rather than regular nationalism. Examples of such ideologies include
National Bolshevism
,
Strasserism, and eventually
National Socialism; the latter being pioneered by the
National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazis) which would later come to power in Germany and start World War 2, after which the party and ideology were deposed. The Nazi era is strongly remembered and condemned in post-war as well as modern Germany, which lead to the whole idea of Nationalism being associated with the Nazis by many Germans, and thus a sharp decline in the ideology's popularity.
Modern ![](//static.miraheze.org/polcompballwiki/e/e9/Cball-Germany.png)
See also: Right-Wing Populism
In the modern day, German Nationalism is very frowned upon due to many opponents connecting the ideas of nationalism to the Nazis. Some nationalism continues to exist in Germany however, with some support going to the relatively new
Alternative for Germany (AfD), which has its roots primarily in
Right-Wing Populism. Due to its roots in Right-wing Populism and
Economic Liberalism however, many German nationalists view the AfD as too soft or not properly representative of the ideas of nationalism. Explicit Nationalisms, especially those kinds which take an anti-capitalist approach, are extremely rare in modern Germany, with only very minor parties supporting them. The largest explicit nationalist party in Germany is the
National Democratic Party of Germany (NPD), which is very controversial due to allowing
Neo-Nazis in their party and being primarily associated with said movement, is itself very small and hasn't been represented in any state parliament since 2016. Other, even smaller,
Neo-Nazi parties such as
The Right or the
III. Path exist too, but are extremely unpopular and given little consideration in German politics.
Turkey
Turkish War of Independence
See also: Kemalism
After the First World War, the people resisting the occupation of the Ottoman Empire and leader, Mustafa Kemal, started a resistance. Thus, by fighting against the monarchy and foreign enemies, they pioneered the establishment of a new and modern nation-state.
