In which example is the combination of cultural and political nationalism clearly visible?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Memory of ancient culture and demand for independence in the Greek struggle
Cultural nationalism uses language, religion, history and memories of a shared past to create a sense of common identity. Political nationalism seeks self-government or an independent state. The Greek struggle combined admiration for ancient Greek civilisation with the political demand to end Ottoman rule and establish an independent Greece. Hence option A is correct; the other examples do not combine cultural identity with national independence.
