How Their Identities Were Forged

A curated collection of essays in which historians from many countries explain how their national identities were shaped, exploring origin myths, defining conflicts, cultural memories, and political uses of the past. Moving across eras and regions, it examines how narratives are constructed, contested, and taught, revealing the interplay between fact, memory, and ideology in forging a sense of nationhood.
