Also means
fraternity
Usage Note
Fratellanza (f) expresses a sense of solidarity and kinship, not necessarily biological. It appears in political and humanist contexts — the French fraternité in the motto of the Revolution is often rendered as fratellanza. The masculine counterpart fratello means 'brother'. Do not confuse fratellanza with fraternità, which is closer to 'fraternity' as an institution.
Examples
"La fratellanza tra i popoli è un ideale universale."
Natural Translation
Brotherhood among peoples is a universal ideal.
