Nationality Is Not A Universal Human Principle But An Historical, Local Fact...every Nation, Even A Small One, Has Its Own Character, Its Own Particular Way Of Life And Manner Of Speaking, Feeling, Thinking, And Behaving. These Distinctive Features Are The Essence Of Nationality, The Product Of A Nation's Entire History And Conditions Of Existence. Every Nation, Like Every Individual, Is Of Necessity What It Is, And Has An Unquestionable Right To Be Itself. So-called National Rights Consist Precisely Of This.
