Meaning for the individual comes from the nation, its culture and history. It provides a cause worthy of self sacrifice. A mission that individuals can dedicate themselves to the advancement of the nation.

What caused the American Civil War.?

Some say simplistically that the Civil War was fought over slavery. Unfortunately, there is no "simple" reason. The causes of the war were a complex series of events, including slavery, that began long before the first shot was fired. Competing nationalisms, political turmoil, the definition of freedom, the preservation of the Union, the fate of slavery and the structure of our society and economy could all be listed as significant contributing factors in America's bloodiest conflict.


Was slav nationalism to blame for the fall of Austria-Hungary?

Austria-Hungary was more or less the achievement of a familly (The Hapsburgs) rather than of a conquering nation. They have brought togather a huge land in which many different nations lived (Hungarians, Czechs, Germans, Slovenes...) at a time when nationality seemed irrelevant. The peoples of the Empire lived seperatly in rather autonomous kingdoms, duchies etc. The tensions began when the absolute emperors sought to relinquish the autonomies of the provinces in favour of a centralized government which started to promote the German language by which threatening the other nations of the empire which formed an overwhelming majority. With the spread of German nationalism other concurring nationalisms began to take hold. As opposition to Germanisation grew strongerthe Germans decided to share power with the second largest nation, the Hungarians. Then both sides, the Austrian and the Hungarian in their respective parts, tried to build a unitary state through assimilating the other nations they had ruled over out of that multinational feud of the Hapsburgs. This was met with fierce resistance from all the other communities most notably the Czechs and South Slavs who demanded equal rights for their languages and autonomy within their historic territories. This brought few results. And when the government in Vienna forced the country into a futile war nobody but the Germans would have benefited from, those oppressed nations and their leaders decided to leave the empire for good and follow the path to independence.

What does the Punjabi flag look like?

There is no widely-known, popularized flags that represents all Punjabis, regardless of faith. The Nisan Sahib used by Sikhs is also often associated with Punjab, and was also the flag of the independent Punjabi state known as the Sikh Empire: It is an orange triangle with three black, interlocked swords on it. Keep in mind though that a majority of Punjabis are Muslims of Pakistani citizenship (including myself, incidentally), and so they would be very unlikely to identify with this Sikh flag. There IS an administrative flag of Western (Pakistani), but it more represents the provincial government than the actual ethnic group: It is a white circular seal with an Islamic crescent on a green background, and with "the Punjab Government" written within the circle in Urdu. There are also a more ideological flag, one that represents the desire to create an independent Sikh state (known as Khalistan) in Eastern Punjab, and to split from India: It is very similar to the Nisan Sahib, but lacks the triangle and is blue and yellow instead of orange. Finally, this flag is used by the Punjabi Language Movement in Pakistan, where unlike in India the language despite being the most widely spoken lacks any official status: It is a flag with 5 (from top to bottom: red, orange, blue, white, green) stripes, with "Punjabi Language Movement" written in Punjabi on the middle stripe. As you can probably tell by now, even though we are a pretty large ethnolinguistic community, we are quite badly fractured by competing religions (Islam, Sikhism, Hinduism and Christianity) and nationalisms (Pakistani, Indian and Khalistani), so we lack a common flag that represents the entire community.
