• The nationalism is a sense of an independent nation that is combined together for the achievement of common goal.
• The persons of a nation are known citizens of a country to enjoy political and civil rights to obey the laws of country.
• An ideal citizen possesses some good qualities, i.e. well educated, aware of one’s own rights and duties having staunch loyalty to the country and with lofty character.
• Nationalism refers to the right of self-determination to imply that every nation in the world should exercise a right to determine its destiny in all walks of life without interference of other states in the world.
• Every nationalist is supposed to perform some duties, i.e. obedience of law, payment of taxes, cooperation with public servants and loyalty with the state, etc.
• State and society are distinguished from each other, i.e. a society has been originated before state and does not enjoy any sovereignty whereas a state has fixed territory and possess sovereignty also.
• State and nation enjoy some distinctions, i.e. state has four essential elements but nation has none. Out of these sovereignty and definite territory are essential for a state.
