# Nationalism Word Search

Nationalism shapes how people understand their place in the world and their relationship to nation and state ([Topic](https://goa-cc-uat-aili-app-001.azurewebsites.net/explore/node/24614)). In Social Studies 20-1, you explore expressions of nationalism ranging from civic and patriotic forms to ethnic and cultural identities ([Outcome](https://goa-cc-uat-aili-app-001.azurewebsites.net/explore/node/24620)).
