This refers to the territorial expression of identity: a sense of belonging to a group or community associated with a particular territory. Often national identities do not correspond with the territory of the nation-state; many French-Canadians, for example, view Quebec as a distinct nation and believe it should become its own nation-state; see M. Henderson (2007). Most states in the world are multinational states, meaning that they contain a variety of nationalities. However, Singh (2012) Social Sciences explains how, ‘despite demographic and cultural diversities, geography, history and creative political construction have combined to produce the Indian variant of nationalism’.
