Scandinavia in Medieval times is shithole. All historical sources talks only about Danes - Northmans - they are real Scourge of Europe and later they create Normandy - Sicilian Kingdoms, Great Britain etc. All other Skandi are just Fingol woodcutters. But later in times Calmar Union mass German colonization of Sweden (what is German name for this country) happened, and because of this Sweden begin dominate in Baltic region, Swedish Empire etc. Such greatness demand invention of epic ancestors and Swedes invent Gothicism.

Is same shit as Sarmatism, but for Swedes.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarmatism

But later Gothic origin of Swedes become too laughable and they invent vikings in XIX century (historic sources know Normans, Danes but almost don't known vikings - only few timesmentioned about pathetic pirates). Swedes spread this shit vikings around the word by same vay as they spread Ikea now.

Why they don't fap to Swedish Empire instead? Because their Empire suck Russian dicks too often and Swedes not forget this yet.

There's hasn't been a major, iconic film or even television series on it. Or even a video game. Think about it, films like Saving Private Ryan and games like Call of Duty popularised WW2 to your average Joe. Outside academia, your average person has had little exposure to Napoleon on his life and therefore don't care. It's not like they're going read War and Peace or any historical biography.

There needs to be a Oscar winning blockbuster on the man.

The only reason why WWI is being referenced in pop culture again is because of the ongoing WWI Centennial.

Once November 11, 2018 rolls around, it'll be forgotten again.

>>2241386
You might be right. I did started hearing way more about WW1 after Battlefield 1 was first announced. Tho it was already getting some more mentions earlier.

>>2241387
idk man, you might be right that it's due to the centennial. But I imagine that all the kewl missconceptions people have built in their heads of WW1 might make it stick for longer, like that idea that it was literal cavemen fighting with modern guns or something that a lot of people seem to believe.

well for a great deal of Europe's history, the only people transcribing, preserving and writing books were Christian theologians, so at the very least it probably didn't hurt

Nationalism creates a need for justification of the actions of the people and the state since it (typically) based on a mythic ideal. This creates autism and problems. But the better term for it would be ''Ultra Nationalism''.

>Nationalism is a complex, multidimensional concept involving a shared communal identification with one's nation. It is expressed as a political ideology oriented towards achieving and maintaining communal autonomy, and sometimes sovereignty, over a territory of historical significance to the group.

Before ''national awareness'', there is a commonly acknowledged sharing of language culture and other traits within a group. Nationalism in it's basest form would be to segregate and attempt to preserve said group within a nation-state.
