Kind of, but remember that Europe is not a nation, so I don't know if nationalism is the correct term.
Chauvinism or jingoism might work.
Also, while europe isnt a single nation, the EU is a single economy, so maybe "nationalism" still applies.
Yes, you are certainly right and I also understand that.
But it has the same reasoning and feels like it, stressing themes of common identity and all, even though Europe technically isn't a nation.
