Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Early 19th-century liberal nationalism promoted individual freedom and racial equality. The economic liberalism that the middle class sought promoted free markets and the elimination of government barriers to the flow of capital and goods. The nationalism-inspired beliefs of the middle class encouraged them to close the gap between the aristocracy and other classes. They had a free-thinking liberal worldview. They aimed to establish a nationwide people's government and put a stop to authoritarian authority. The Latin word "liber," which means "free," is the origin of the word "liberalism."
The correct statement would be in the 19th century, European liberalism does not promote collective freedom.
