Political Geography

Today, we learned the difference of a Country, State, and Nation.  At first i was completely confused, but i think I got it now.  Basically, a Country is lines on a map, a nation is a group of people, and a state is a government.  It is really easy to understand after that Canadian guy explained it, even though his jokes were irrelevant and non-humorous.  Independent States need all of the following things:  boundaries, organized economy, education, transportation, government, sovereignty, and external recognition.
