1) During the early twentieth century, various nationalistic movements involved goals and values. In Europe and areas such as Russia and the Ottoman Empire, nationalists wanted to promote independence and secession in areas that had different ethnic origins, culture, language, and political ideals. Slavic people (i.e. Serbs) wanted to form their own country. Ethnic groups such as the Poles, Czechs, Slovaks, Serbs, Coats, and the Slovenes asserted the right of self-determination.

The Crimean War (October 1853 – February 1856)was a conflict fought between the Russian Empire and an alliance of the French Empire, the British Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Kingdom of Sardinia. The war was part of a long-running contest between the major European powers for influence over territories of the declining Ottoman Empire. Most of the conflict took place on the Crimean Peninsula, but there were smaller campaigns in western Anatolia, Caucasus, the Baltic Sea, the Pacific Ocean and the White Sea. The war has gone by different names. In Russia it is also known as the "Eastern War" and in Britain at the time it was sometimes known as the "Russian War".
