A strange but strong feeling of patriotism one may feel for a country they are not native to or don't live in. Mainly induced by listening to the metal band Sabaton, who sings about extremely proud moments in worldwide history.
Friend A: Bro, I heard Sabaton's songs about Poland, and I legit felt Polish pride!
Friend B: I know, man. I was listening to the songs from Carolus Rex, and I was proud to be Swedish, even though I'm not!
Longtime fan: Ah, the Sabaton Effect strikes again.

A strong sense of patriotism one attains by listening to music from or about a country whom they usually have no association with.
Person 1: "Dude, I felt like a patriotic French guy when I was listening to The First Soldier."
Person 2: "yup, that's the Sabaton Effect for you."
