NATIONALISM

…

Nationalism is a belief,

creed or political ideology

that involves an individual

identifying with, or

becoming attached to, one's

nation.

In the history of Philippines,

the birth of nationalism went

rather slowly due to

topography, language problems

and colonial policy.

Nationalism is not a product of

a sudden outburst of sentiment.

It is brought about by certain

factors that gradually develop.

It is like a seed nourished by

common ideals and aspiration

for national unity.

parishes and were under the supervision of

the bishops.

parishes that were being run by regular priests

Secular priests must fill in the vacancy left by the regular

clergy

much compared to the number of clerics

Due to lack of personnel, the various religious orders opened

membership to young native Filipinos
