Beliefs

It places special importance on traditional liberal values such as freedom, tolerance, equality, and individual rights; while completely rejecting forms of nationalism that includes immutable characteristics in its definition.
Definition of the nation
Civic Nationalism holds that, anyone who is a member of the state through acquiring citizenship, is automatically also party of the nation, this makes it unique, as the only form of Nationalism that views the state as a prerequisite for the nation to exist in the first place, viewing both nation and state as synonymous.
The ideology usually also requires of its citizen to accept the values of the state, which are usually liberal in nature, and accept the state's legitimacy as well as authority in order to be viewed as a full part of the nation.
