NATIONALISM
…
Nationalism is a belief,
creed or political ideology
that involves an individual
identifying with, or
becoming attached to, one's
nation.
In the history of Philippines,
the birth of nationalism went
rather slowly due to
topography, language problems
and colonial policy.
Nationalism is not a product of
a sudden outburst of sentiment.
It is brought about by certain
factors that gradually develop.
It is like a seed nourished by
common ideals and aspiration
for national unity.
