You say denying ethnic, linguistic, and cultural parameters divide the people of the world, but ti doesn't if you embrace acceptance and are tolerant to ones culture. Nationalism why it may not divide the people of your country, it divides you to the bigger picture, the rest of the world. America it self has a lot of culture,New Yorks culture is different that that of Bostons, or Philadelphia, and even on a bigger picture that of Texas. Then cultural background on ancestry as well differs from across America, I guess my question to you would be, What do you look to gain, or think will better your country at a nationalist state in the future?

I don't know in which US state people speak an english that is as unintelligible as yours, but from what I could gather, America is a place that lacks even the most basic forms of social cohesion. They are not concerned with social justice, nor caring for their fellow kin. They lack the basic characteristics of a nation, and the people are only concerned with their own self-interest. Their familal values are degrading, and morality is waning, they are becoming more and more dependent on the brain and muscle power of foreigners that immigrate again, for personal gain.
A prominent Turkish nationalists had spoken about this many years ago, saying: "America is an abomination. A rootless collection of bandits. They will get what deserve. We as a nation of extensive history and many humane values and virtues, should cut off every relation with them."

How did that turn out again?
1930? I think you have confused your dates.
Nationalism was around for longer than that. And it aided in the creation of modern Ireland, India and many other countries.
