Summary: This article attempts to show the close relation between patriotism and nationalism with a specific observation of the Southeast European states and their behavior toward this issue.

Misunderstanding of the real meaning of patriotism, its indivisible relation with the nationalism, and its constant abuse are the three core reasons that prove that nationalism is an advanced form of patriotism.
