With the rise of nation-states, new countries discovered nationalism, or a pride in common ethnic heritages, cultures, and beliefs. however, nationalism often created negative consequences. in a few sentences, explain the drawbacks of nationalism. what might go wrong?

    Nationalism is a wonderful thing to practice. However, many things can go wrong and lead to serious consequences. A drawback of nationalism might be that your nation's heritage/culture may be different than that of the other nations. Although now, we see nothing wrong with that, it was a big problem back then. In most situations, you had to be the same religion or participate in the same culture as everyone else. If you chose to participate in your own religion, you would either have to be discreet or face the consequences. Those consequences could be jail time, being stoned, or worse.

    Another drawback of nationalism would be a lack of following tradition. This kind of relates back to the first drawback I mentioned. Most nations have their own traditions practiced by everyone living there. For example, they may have holidays that they celebrate. Just like we celebrate Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, and other holidays as well. But there is a small difference. As of the present, we can pick and choose which holidays to celebrate and which holidays not to celebrate. However, Back then, you didn't really have a choice. Even if you didn't want to, you would be forced to celebrate a holiday. Tradition was taken very seriously back then. If you refused, the consequences would be the same as the ones I listed earlier. Maybe even worse.
