I would go even further. If a country exists and everybody has a national identity, all happy citizens. Then one region decides to become separatist. If the rest of the country doesn't let them separate, I would qualify that as imperialism as well.

Have you read anything on what imperialism actually is?

I would suggest reading Lenin's "Imperialism"
