WE have a country, a state and a nation. To me, a country is just the geographical setting of mountains, rivers, trees and the soil we walk on plus the waters of rivers, lakes and seas. A state would be the system of governance and the machine of economics as well rules and regulations guarding the people.
A nation is the software of the state and country. A nation begins when people agree to a common origin of that state and country – and, I believe, also agree on a common destiny.
