Nationalism is not a necessary behavior inherent in human nature. While humans have a tendency to form groups and identify with them, the concept of nationalism is a relatively modern phenomenon that has been shaped by historical, political, and social factors.

What is the global behavior and the boundary behavior?
Global behavior refers to the overall behavior or pattern of a system over a long period of time, while boundary behavior refers to the behavior of a system near its boundaries or limits. In the context of a mathematical function or system, global behavior may describe the overall trend or shape of the function, while boundary behavior may describe how the function behaves as it approaches certain limits or boundaries, such as approaching infinity or approaching zero. Understanding both the global and boundary behavior of a system is important for analyzing and predicting its behavior in different scenarios.
