French nationalism
Tricolor-waving political fervor
French nationalism is political devotion to France as a nation, emphasizing French identity, culture, language, and sovereignty.
It ranges from civic pride in republican values to ethnic or exclusionary movements opposing immigration and European integration.
The term appears in historical contexts—the Revolution, Napoleonic era, Vichy regime—and in contemporary discussions of parties like the National Rally.
