Nationalism and the Creation of Italy

Nationalism is the belief that one's greatest loyalty should not be to a king or an empire but to a nation of people who share a common culture and history. I am Nationalistic by how I am a citizen of the country I live in, I have a birth certificate. The things I do that show that I'm nationalistic is that I use the currency in this country and that I learn about my country in school and I follow the laws in my country.

Nationalism was used to unify Italy by how they used alliances with other country's to gain control of some parts of Italy. To gain control of the northern part of Italy they had to use diplomacy. To conquer the land in the north they had to find an alliance to get the Austrians out of the territory.They conquered Italy by there alliances. Italy before the unification was ruled by the Austrians and they were basically all over the place.
