Outline conservative nationalism.

Conservative nationalism values national identity as a source of cohesion, tradition and order, and is typically defensive about immigration and about threats to a settled way of life.

Expansionist nationalism is the belief that one's own nation is superior and entitled to dominate others, and it is usually militaristic and hostile to internal minorities.

Define national chauvinism.

National chauvinism is an irrational and exclusive belief in the supremacy of one's own nation, which treats other nations as inferior or as enemies.

Why is anti-colonial nationalism often described as a fusion of ideologies?

Because it combines the demand for national self-determination with socialist ideas about economic liberation from the former imperial power.
