Why is it common to use two different concepts—nation and state—to describe political entities?
What will be an ideal response?
By convention, a nation refers to a group of people who share a common cultural identity be it
ethnicity or ideology; nations may or may not be associated with a particular territorial state. A
state is a recognized political entity that exhibits sovereignty—internal control of its own
governance, with legally defined territorial boundaries. Many states are associated with a single,
or dominant, nationality: a nation-state. Many nationalities that do not currently have their own
state aspire to achieve one.
