Editing El Nasionalima

El Natsionalisma is a Slokasian political movement which formed in 1970 and was adopted by the administrations of several presidents. Meaning “The National Way” in the Slokasian language, the term is also used to describe the period of Slokasian history from 1973 to 1983. Defined by rapid economic growth, nationalism and the cultivation of a national identity the primary figure was President Howard Xiang. Although generally democratic in nature, some aspects of El Nasionalisma are criticized for worsening income inequality and being authoritarian in implementation. 

Prior to the Costa presidency {{efn|Also known as the National Reform Era, Reformsi Nasional or the Era of State Power|}}, Slokasian nationalism was a fringe ideology. Instead of identifying with the country, many identified with their province or ethnic group. Primarily an effect of the country's diversity and many foreign empires, many people saw themselves as their ethnic group first and Slokasian second. This largely changed with Juan Costa’s National Reforms which largely enforced standard policy and practices nationwide. Although these practices which also included social practices and language were dominated by the San Fernando Island, Costenoian elite. During the Slokasian Civil War, factions and armies were formed from these groups often uniting them for the first time. In 1966, in the liberation of New Liverpool, units from 17 provinces served in combat allowing for a united government to take hold. In a speech to gathered soldiers just after the liberation of the city General Semerjang Best declared “Not since this nation’s founding has there been such unity, I see the flags and banners of a dozen provinces and people’s all united for the creation of a common Federation”.
