Nationalism is a product of modern thought (as opposed to medieval thought). Since modernity only reached the Arab World when it was colonized by Western Powers in the late 1800s and early 1900s, Nationalism only began there in those periods.

What are some differences between Pan-Arabism and Islamic Nationalism?

The two are completely opposite ideologies.Pan-Arabism: Supporters of Pan-Arabism believe that the Arab World should be one nation similar to the Umayyad Caliphate as it was in the year 750 C.E. (without Persia or Southern Spain). They believe that the Arab World has borders that were artificially drawn by Europeans, Turks, and greedy Arab rulers and that the natural condition of the Arab people is to be in one large nation (similar to the United States). While Pan-Arabists have often discussed using Islam as a general framework for the laws of this Pan-Arab State, most Pan-Arabists believed in a secular government and only used Islam as a cultural marker, not a religious one.Islamic Nationalism: Islamic Nationalism is a form of Islamism. Islamism is a political ideology whose goal is to bring the religious tenets of Islam into the daily functioning of a government and its laws. Islamism is a modern movement whose roots began contemporaneously with the rise of Salafism in the late 1800s and early 1900s in Egypt. Islamic Nationalism is not by nature violent or expansive and several Islamic Nationalist movements have concrete goals such as the Islamists in power in Turkey. Islamic Nationalists do not believe in one unified state for all Muslims, but in making each individual state act in accordance with Islamic principles. Islamic Nationalism also does not have an ethnic component, so Islamic Nationalism can be exported outside of the Arab World. It has taken root in Iran and Turkey and has advocated movements in South Asia and Africa.

What were the effects of the Holocaust in the Middle East?

There were numerous effects of the Holocaust in the Middle East. The following are the three most important of them.State of Israel: This is probably the most common answer. The Zionist project existed long before the Holocaust. (The first Halutzim came to the territory of the British Mandate of Palestine while it was still under Ottoman control -- late 1800s and early 1900s and Ze'ev Jabotinsky encouraged Polish Jews to immigrate to the British Mandate of Palestine in 1937.) However, after the Holocaust, it became clear to the International Community that the Jews needed a place to exist freely and without fear of persecution where previously this sentiment was confined to radicals in the Jewish community. (Most Jews were anti-Zionist or at least not pro-Zionist before the Holocaust.) As a direct result of the Holocaust, the United Nations convened and proposed the UN Partition of the British Mandate in 1947 which gave Israel a legal claim to statehood in 1948.Nazification of Arab Nationalism: This is usually glossed over, but the root causes of the Holocaust like the Nazi ideology were important in the development of Arab Nationalism. During the Colonial Period in the Arab World, the Arabs felt that while they were the sons of conquerors who ruled vast empires, they were now humiliated and conquered by the British and the French. This feeling of subjugated superiority matched the Nazi profile and as a result, Arabs began pilfering Nazi doctrine and adding it to their own Nationalist sentiments. This caused Arab Nationalism to have a more militaristic and violent character in addition to giving it a more anti-Semitic character. Pogroms and violent persecution of both Jewish and Christian minorities ensued, especially in nations that had direct dealings with the Axis Power like Iraq. The legacy of the Nazification of Arab Nationalism is still quite strongly ingrained in the Arab World.Mizrahi Jewish Exodus: Because of the two above results of the Holocaust, the overwhelming majority of Jews who lived in Arab countries were forced out of their homes or felt compelled to leave to avoid further persecution and went to Israel, France, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada, in addition to other regions. The amount of Jews in the entire Arab World in 1945 is over ten times the number in 1975.
