Ultranationalism
Ultranationalism or extreme nationalism is an extreme form of nationalism in which a country asserts or maintains detrimental hegemony, supremacy, or other forms of control over other nations (usually through violent coercion) to pursue its specific interests. Ultranationalist entities have been associated with the engagement of political violence even during peacetime. In ideological terms, scholars such as British political theorist Roger Griffin have found that ultranationalism arises from seeing modern nation-states as living organisms directly akin to physical people such that they can decay, grow, die, and additionally experience rebirth. Political campaigners have divided societies in stark mythological ways between those perceived as degenerately inferior and those perceived as a part of a great cultural destiny. Ultranationalism is an aspect of fascism, with historic governments such as the regime of Nazi Germany building on ultranationalist foundations using specific ...

Nationalist Organizations
Nationalism is an idea and movement that holds that the nation should be congruent with the state. As a movement, nationalism tends to promote the interests of a particular nation (as in a group of people), Smith, Anthony. ''Nationalism: Theory, Ideology, History''. Polity, 2010. pp. 9, 25–30; especially with the aim of gaining and maintaining the nation's sovereignty ( self-governance) over its homeland to create a nation-state. Nationalism holds that each nation should govern itself, free from outside interference ( self-determination), that a nation is a natural and ideal basis for a polity, and that the nation is the only rightful source of political power. It further aims to build and maintain a single national identity, based on a combination of shared social characteristics such as culture, ethnicity, geographic location, language, politics (or the government), religion, traditions and belief in a shared singular history, and to promote national unity or solida ...

Serbian Nationalism
Serbian nationalism asserts that Serbs are a nation and promotes the cultural and political unity of Serbs. It is an ethnic nationalism, originally arising in the context of the general rise of nationalism in the Balkans under Ottoman rule, under the influence of Serbian linguist Vuk Stefanović Karadžić and Serbian statesman Ilija Garašanin. Serbian nationalism was an important factor during the Balkan Wars which contributed to the decline of the Ottoman Empire, during and after World War I when it contributed to the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and again during the breakup of Yugoslavia and the Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s. After 1878, Serbian nationalists merged their goals with those of Yugoslavists, and emulated the Piedmont's leading role in the ''Risorgimento'' of Italy, by claiming that Serbia sought not only to unite all Serbs in one state, but that Serbia intended to be a South Slavic Piedmont that would unite all South Slavs in one state known as ...

Far-right Politics In Serbia
Far-right politics in Serbia emerged shortly before the break-up of Yugoslavia and has been present ever since. Its manifestation mostly focuses on national and religious factors. After the World War I, the far-right in Yugoslavia received little amount of support, although politicians and groups alike had existed. Milan Stojadinović, a Yugoslav Serb politician, served as Prime Minister of Yugoslavia from 1935 to 1939 and saw fascism as an ideological role model for his premiership. Additionally, Dimitrije Ljotić headed Zbor, a party that was inspired by Italian fascism, anti-communism, and antisemitism. Ljotić also cooperated with Bishop Nikolaj Velimirović, an antisemite who also promoted anti-Western ideas. Milan Nedić, who was appointed prime minister of the puppet government in 1941, was a supporter of fascist ideas, and promoted conspiracy theories about Jews. Chetniks under Draža Mihailović, supported royalism, nationalism, and the creation of Greater Serbia w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Shqiptar
Shqiptar ( sq-definite, Shqip(ë)tari; aln, Shqyptar/-i; plural: ''Shqiptarë/-t'', ''Shqyptarë/-t'') is an Albanian ethnonym (endonym), by which Albanians call themselves. They call their country ''Shqipëria'' ( aln, Shqypnia, Shqipnia). Etymology The first documentation of the adverb/adjective ''shqip'' can already be found in the ''Meshari'', the oldest Albanian language book published in 1555 by Gjon Buzuku. Johann Georg von Hahn (1854) was the first to derive the term ''Shqiptar'' from the Albanian verbs ''shqipoj'' ("to speak clearly") and ''shqiptoj'' ("to speak out, pronounce"). While Gustav Meyer (1891) was the first to derive ''shqipoj'' from the Latin verb ''excipere'', denoting people who speak the same language, similar to the ethno-linguistic dichotomies ''Sloven—Nemac'' and ''Deutsch—Wälsch''. This etymology is widely accepted by modern Albanologists. Demetrio Camarda (1864) on the other hand, was the first to derive ''Shqiptar'' from the Albanian noun ' ...

The Zagreb rocket attacks were two rocket attacks conducted by the Army of the Republic of Serbian Krajina that used multiple rocket launchers to strike the Croatian capital of Zagreb during the Croatian War of Independence. The attack killed seven and wounded over 200 Croatian and foreign civilians and was carried out on 2 May and 3 May 1995 as retaliation for the Croatian army's offensive in Operation Flash.
