Jingoism is an extreme form of nationalism characterized by a belligerent foreign policy and a belief in national superiority. It is often associated with INTOLERANCE and PREJUDICE, which are two words that can be used to describe it. INTOLERANCE is an unwillingness to accept views, beliefs, or behavior that differ from one's own, while PREJUDICE is an unfavorable opinion or feeling formed without adequate knowledge or thought. Together, these two words accurately capture the essence of jingoism.
