4. ELEMENTS OF NATIONALISM & CENTRIPETAL FORCE

SHARED EMOTIONS
CENTRIPETAL FORCE-UNIFYING ATTITUDE; DIRECTED TOWARD THE CENTER; PULLS A COUNTRY TOGETHER
BEST WAY TO ACHIEVE CITIZEN SUPPORT EMAPHSIZE SHARED ATTITUDES

WHAT’S THE OPPOSITE SITUATION FROM KURDS?
WHAT’S A NATION STATE? EXAMPLE?
WHAT WAS THE BASIS FOR SEPARATING THE PAKISTAN’S FROM INDIA?
WHAT HAPPENED TO KURDISTAN?
