Answer:

1 Imperialism

2 Nationalism

3 Zionism

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Imperialism is the policy of extending a country´s power and influence through diplomacy or military force.

2 Nationalism is the identification with one´s own nation, very often to the exclusion or detriment of other nations.

3 Zionism is the believe that the Jewish nation (in the Middle East) should be developed and protected.

Although the three movements are very different, they have one important thing in common: power.

Whether it is economically (imperialism), nationally or religiously (zionism) motivated, it doesn´t matter so much.
