Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire were both large empires that ruled over many diverse (different) ethnic groups. Due to feelings of nationalism, the ethnic minorities of these lands wanted to gain independence (self-government) and form their own nations. Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire were eventually broken up due to nationalist movements by these different ethnic groups.
Starting in the late 1700s, nationalism became a major force that helped inspire uprisings across Europe and Latin America. In the mid-1800s, nationalism led to the creation of two strong, united nations; Italy and Germany. Nationalistic sentiments spread among Indians, Turks, Jews, and other peoples. Nationalism did not always draw people together, however. In the early 1900s, nationalism created conflicts in southeastern Europe that drove the continent to the brink of war.
