Answer:

procured and sustained power from unified nationalism and shared sentiments.

Step-by-step explanation:

Many Asian scholars and intellectuals felt that the rise of European imperialism was rooted in its concerted political and social organization.

They believed that through this unified organization strong nation-states were created in Europe. Altogether they believed that European nations and their successful imperial empires procured and sustained power from unified nationalism and shared sentiments.

In fact, they were truly impressed with Europe's nation-state establishments and their success stories that they advocated and suggested Asian nations to adopt similar models of nation building.
