Find an idiot like Hitler or Mussolini, search for an ideal aimed at explaining mass genocide, and in the end convince millions that you can recreate the Roman Empire. This is how, in short terms, nationalism brought it's contribution to 20th century society.

Personally, I don't think he contributes anything to a country's nationalism or development today. He lived so long ago. Roman values are not the values of today. The lasting contributions of Roman civilisation are in, firstly, a linguistic contribution to many European languages, particularly the 'romance' group of French, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and Romanian and, secondly, to the structures of the Roman Catholic church and other episcopal churches. A 'diocese', now the area of a bishop was originally a Roman term for an area of civil control. But these are the contributions of a whole culture, not just one man.

He started the empire, by invading and taking over other Greek City States and other nations, clans, tribes, etc. From this, you can conclude that Julius Caesar took only weak and took it for himself. it's like pacman; pacman takes the weak ghosts and takes it for himself for his own gain. This you can say is nationalism, when a strong, big nation takes a weak nation for itself.

He created the first functional empire, he created the first complex and professional army with officer corp and NCOs.
He said it himself with I am Rome and Rome is me. Every roman took that to heart. for the first time you have a diverse group of people coming together as one self proclaimed group imposing rule on lesser people

Ask the French. J.Caesar committed gross acts of geonocide in Gaul - murdering 1,000,000 Gaulish Celts and sending a further 1,000,000 into slavery. He also destroyed 800 towns and villages.
Death to Rome.
Long live Asterix!
