Nounnations pl.
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A nation is a body of people who share a real or imagined common history, culture, language or ethnic origin. The development and conceptualization of the nation is closely related to the development of modern industrial states and nationalist movements in Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries, although nationalists would trace nations into the past along an uninterrupted lines of historical narrative. 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. Though "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. True statesmen are rare. What we have now everywhere are two-bit politicians who do not have the interests of citizens in heart. Most of them are autocratic, corrupt and self-serving. They are the cause of all ills within nations and without. What we need now is a system of government run by citizens without the need for politicians. A government by the people, for the people and of the people -- minus the politicians. Surely, the technological advances we have today can be used to create such a system, if only we take the time to explore this seriously. Asked by tmanikc - Sun Jul 9 04:17:28 2006 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. I keep thinking that governments could be ruled by the people for the people virtually. Let everybody have their say and then let the majority rule. Maybe you could create a government out of a jury type system. You would have a judge that would follow basic rules of good government, you could have "lawyers" present different sides and the the 12 person jury could make decisions. I trust the average person especially if grouped together much more than our politicians. What would be neat if if we could pilot or prototype the idea. Maybe it could be something like Yahoo Answers. People could suggest ideas and then people could vote. It would have to be much different but maybe it could be the Genesis of a new world order!! :) Answered by msbluebells - Sun Jul 9 04:28:27 2006 What is the usual punishment for draft dodging in nations currently having a draft? Q. Of course that's many nations and punishment will vary. In Germany males must serve at least 9 months, but how bad is it when they refuse? Unwilling draftees will represent low morale so they can't be wanted that badly. Is it serious or not? Asked by whitetop94538 - Mon Mar 31 23:56:12 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A.

Q. Im planning to finish high school this year and i want to get a job at the UN and it says i have to take the United Nations Administrative Support Assessment Test which i don't much about??? any can help??? Asked by Miss Hello Kitty - Sun Oct 12 13:40:10 2008 - - 1 Answers - 2 Comments A. If I recall the test is divided into two parts. One is general or world knowledge and the other is administrative; I seem to recall there being some simple math questions included in part 1 also. My suggestion is - if you can - take a secretarial course - also in this day of computers being able to type properly is always a good thing. It will provide you with office organizational skills that will help with part two. Answered by Sean O - Mon Oct 13 04:10:10 2008 From Yahoo Answer Search: "nations" Nations is often used synonymously with ethnic group (sometimes "ethnos"), but although ethnicity is now one of the most important aspects of cultural or social identity for the members of most nations, people with the same ethnic origin may live in different nation-states and be treated as members of separate nations for that reason.
