Fiction is entertainment. Literature is philosophy in slow motion. philosophy is theology in disguise of literature. science, economics, and law – well, that’s for grownups. Math is for grownups who like to make other grownups feel dumb. 😉
“Stupid” reveals itself in the abstracts.

NATION VS STATE VS COUNTRY Most common errors conflate nation (people), country
NATION VS STATE VS COUNTRY
Most common errors conflate nation (people), country (territory) and state (government) because the ‘natural’ order is that these are the same: a body of people, the territory they live in and the government they defend and operate it with.
HUMAN GROUP
individual > family > clan > tribe > nation > race > man
HUMAN RULES
norms (manners, morals, ethics) > laws > institutions, traditions > arts > myths > religions.
TERRITORY
Farm > village > town > city > county – province > country > state > federation (capital) > empire (core state, and capital) > civilization.
ORGANIZATION
father > pater familia (extended family or clan) > headman or chieftain (tribe of clans) > king(kingdom) of tribes > monarch(monarchy under christianity) > state (corporation over all) > federation (of states) > empire (heterogeneous states) > civilization.
LEADERSHIP
individual > family or clan > oligarchy (group) > democracy (most)
