English Nationalism

English nationalism is a political and cultural ideology emphasizing pride in and loyalty to England as a distinct nation, often advocating for maintaining or increasing England's independence, identity, and interests within the UK or globally. It emphasizes historical traditions, language, and institutions associated with England, sometimes expressing concern over cultural or political influence from other parts of the UK or abroad. While it can foster national pride, it can also lead to exclusionary attitudes or opposition to multiculturalism if taken to extremes. Overall, it reflects a strong sense of English identity and sovereignty.
