Give the advantages and disadvantages of nationalism and military preparedness.

Nationalism is a political, social, and economic ideology that is based on the promotion of the interests of a certain nation. Nationalism alleges that each nation should be able to govern itself and be free from any external interference from foreign powers.

An advantage of nationalism is that it aims to preserve a nation's culture and traditions. Things that many countries are losing nowadays as a product of globalization. It was also the driving force behind independentist movements in many regions throughout the world.
