From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A nation is a group of people who share culture, ethnic origin and language, often possessing or seeking its own independent government. The development and conceptualization of a nation is closely related to the development of modern industrial states and nationalist movements in Europe in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, although nationalists would trace nations into the past along uninterrupted lines of historical narrative. Though the idea of nationality and race are often connected, the two are separate concepts, race dealing more with genotypic and phenotypic similarity and clustering, and nationality with the sense of belonging to a culture. A nation is different from a country in that a country is the land that belongs to a nation, and from a state in that a state is the government of the nation and country. Benedict Anderson argued that nations were "imagined communities" because "the members of even the smallest nation will never know most of their fellow-members, meet them, or even hear of them, yet in the minds of each lives the image of their communion", and traced their origins back to vernacular print journalism, which by its very nature was limited with linguistic zones and addressed a common audience. Although "nation" is also commonly used in informal discourse as a synonym for state or country, a nation is not identical to a state. Countries where the social concept of "nation" coincides with the political concept of "state" are called nation states. From Wikipedia under the

Q. This is a question in response to the fact that many nations retain specific cultural and ethnic definitions whereas many nations (mainly in europe) feel the need to drop any ethnic or cultural unity and rely purely on nations held together by holding only the same passport. Is this a positive thing for a society to do or dangerous naive? This does not really include 'new world' nations such as Australia, USA or many south American nations.I am refering to Europe, Asia and Africa.

Slovenia, 30 000 non ethnic slovenes - despite living in the area for generations and or 100s of years - were denied citizenship when Slovenia declared independence from Yugoslavia. They have no papers, no citizens rights and no residential rights. Ethnic cleansing by bureaucrat and agreed to by NATO and the EU. You can see why they fought for and supported the Nazi in WWII. Can I say that? They are now great friends of Germany and the EU. Yes, Arabs, but also, Iceland has laws that Icelandic names must be taken, Latvia and Lithuania the same. That is not racial, it is cultural.
