It issues all the orders within its jurisdiction and receives orders from no one. It is absolute and has no legal limitations. Hence the laws of the state are final and binding.<\/p>\n

                          External sovereignity means the state is independent of all external control and force which can coerce a state into obedience. A state is free and equal with other states. An independent state can enter into any treaty or agreement and have its own foreign policy to carry on its own foreign affairs without any interference from other states.<\/p>\n

                          \n[Some writers Say racial purely is a factor, which helps in the formation and continuance of nationality].<\/p>\n

                          People belonging to the same race develop strong bonds of unity and form nationality.<\/p>\n

                          There is no pure race in any nation. The USA, Canada, Switzerland and India are belonging to various origins . Thus the racial unity is a desirable factor for the formation of nationality but an absolutely essential factor.<\/p>\n

                          Common Language:
                          \nIt brings people together. People who speak common language have a strong bond of relationship and unity. It helps people to communicate with each other. For e. g: People of Switzerland speak their languages, Hench, German and Italian but form one nationality. In India, we speak many languages but we belong to one nationality.<\/p>\n

                            Question 1.
                            \nDefine state and explain its essential elements. .
                            \nAnswer:
                            \nAristotle defines the state as \u201cA Union of families and villages having for its end a perfect and self-sufficient life, by which we mean a happy and honorable life\u201d.<\/p>\n

                            According to Bluntschli. The state is Politically Organized people According to Wilson, \u201cThe state is a people organized for law within a definite territory\u201d. According to Laski, \u201cThe state is a territorial society divided into government and subject, etc, claiming within its allotted physical area, a supremacy over all other institutions\u201d.<\/p>\n

                            The above definitions show that there are four essential elements of the state.<\/p>\n

                              \n
                            1. Population.<\/li>\n
                            2. Territory.<\/li>\n
                            3. Government.<\/li>\n
                            4. Sovereignty.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                              1. population:
                              \nPeople are the most important essential of the state. If there are no people there will be nobody to rule and nobody to be ruled. A vacant island or desert can\u2019t constitute a state. Hence, the population is essential for state and without population there can be no state.<\/p>\n

                              For Aristotle, the number should be neither too large nor too small. It should be large enough to be self-sufficient and small enough to be well-governed. The actual population is less than the optimum; the natural resources can\u2019t be fully utilized. If it is more, poverty will be the result.<\/p>\n

                              2. Territory:
                              \nTerritory is a definite area of earth’s surface where people reside permanently. We can\u2019t think of a state without territory.
                              \nThe area within these boundaries constitutes the \u201cTerritorial Jurisdiction\u201d of a state.<\/p>\n

                              There is no fixed limit to the size of the territory, it may be generally laid down that there should be a proper balance between population and territory.<\/p>\n

                              3. Government:
                              \nFor the peaceful existence, gout is very much essential for a state. The government is the machinery, which regulates controls and directs human behavior in society. It is an agency of the state through which the will of the state is formulated, expressed and executed. The entire population of a political community makes a state. The gout is composed of few persons duly elected or selected. There are branches of government. They are legislature, executive and judiciary. The form of government differs from state to state.<\/p>\n

                              4. Sovereignty:
                              \nIt means the supreme power of the state. The term sovereignty derived from the Latin word supreranus, which means supreme. There are two aspects of sovereignty Internal and external ‘sovereignty’. Internal means supreme legal authority and group within its territory. External means freedom of state from any kind of outside control. It means Pot – Independence of state. ‘Sovereignty’ is the most important element of the State.<\/p>\n

                              3. Protection to life and property:
                              \nState is the basic structure for the maintenance of law and order, so the property of the people is also protected by the state.<\/p>\n

                              \nThe state also protects the weaker section of society\u00a0like women, children, and minorities.<\/p>\n

                              5. State creates Order in Society:

                              \nWhat is meant by Nation and Nationality?
                              \nAns.
                              \nWriters on political science are not agreed on the exact meaning of word nationality. The term. Nation and Nationality have been used interchangeably. Both the term Nation and Nationality are derived from the same root word \u2018Nato\u2019, which means born, birth, or race. The word nation has acquired a political meaning whereas nationality acquired spiritual meaning.<\/p>\n

                              According to Lord Bryce, a nation means a self governs nationality.
                              \nTo Gilchrist, a nation means state plus nationality refers to the feeling of oneness, which exists among a group of people with common race, religion, common language, etc.
                              \nThe meaning of the word nation is not very clear as we have already stated this word derived from the word \u2018Nato\u2019 which means birth.<\/p>\n

                              The Major points of difference are as follower.<\/p>\n

                                \n

                              2. The state is a political concept and a political organization. It signifies common consciousness and units.<\/li>\n
                              3. The term state is narrow and technical. It consists of four elements of population, territory, government, and sovereignty.<\/li>\n
                              4. State may be inhabited by heterogeneous groups of people. The nation is homogeneous in composition.<\/li>\n
