place. In his 10 points Weber implied that procedures imposed on all who fall

The short pause in-between each down may not seem significant, yet this allows the football player to catch their breath.

disowned.

The deep belief in a sense of oneness settled inside those individuals who had turned away from isolation, individuals who felt liberated from the hand of oppression, and those who had compromised their lives for a bright future. Patriotism and unity represent two main variables in the equation for a national identity.
