Those that erroneously glorify and propagate the traditions and customs that are said to be of barbarian origin. For instance, Prussia is supposed to be a "great tragedy" for the Germans. They decry that Prussia fell, but the Teutonic Knights had stabbed Christendom in the back anyways, by waging war on Catholic Poland and leading the Protestant Reformation. The Hanseatic League was descended from the viking pillages and modern capitalism owes its exuberance from the Hanse. There is no reason to support or revive such "culture".
BTW, I picked "Irridentist".
