Nationalism

Nationalism developed during the 19th century because the Napoleonic wars made people feel connected.  

A lot of people wanted a country with just their own people. 

Germany in the 19th century

Germany had always been a large, divided empire. 

In 1871, Germany united (--> nationalism!)

Effect: a new power balance in Europe. 

The Kingdom of the United Netherlands

A lot Belgians (from the south of the NL)

did not agree with the Dutch king. 

Because of this, they started to revolt. 

The Belgians succeeded and got their own nation 

in 1830.

Multi-nationstates: countries where more than 1 people lived in a country (Ottoman Empire / Austria Hungary)

Do you think it would be a good idea if the Netherlands and Belgium would unite again? Explain why or why not.
