national movement
Country-wide political push
A national movement is a collective effort by people sharing ethnic, cultural, or territorial identity to achieve political goals—typically independence, unification, or self-governance.
The Kurdish national movement seeks autonomy across several countries.
Such movements may pursue their aims through political organizing, cultural revival, or armed struggle.
The term often describes 19th- and 20th-century campaigns that reshaped European and colonial maps.
