Nationalism as "Good": The French Revolution: The French Revolution (1789-late 1790s) saw the French people embrace nationalism after years of feudal monarchy. The pre-revolution feudal system hindered collective French identity by separating social classes (nobles, peasants). France's population grew between 1715 and 1789, with increasing urban populations but limited benefits for the lower classes. The revolution saw French individuals identifying as "French" rather than subjects of the king. The middle classes questioned royal loyalty, fostering collective consciousness. The Industrial Revolution also furthered collective consciousness.
