It's the belief that one should be loyal to your country rather than the person/people leading it.

I personally find Nationalism to be better than Patriotism; however it has been abused by evil rulers over the years (Hitler, Stalin, Kim) and I see practially no countries of good status using Nationalism. This is why we may see Nationalism as a bad thing, but really it is not

Um... was this supposed to start a debate? I mean, it's kinda hard to debate on exactly WHAT nationalism is when it has a fairly clear definition.

I'm not debating it; I'm just expressing my opinion on it
