Description: This map shows nationalities in South-Eastern Europe. Nationality is a matter of personal identity. Nationality could stem from the place of birth, the place where someone grew up, or where family is located or originates from. In World War I era South-Eastern Europe, nationalities can cross national borders, can define national borders, or many nationalities can be contained within one nation. One result of World War I was the dissolution of empires that contained multiple nationalities.
