Technically, 'nation' can have implications of ethnicity, coming from same etymological root as 'born', though that's kind of losing it's meaning these days if it ever was valid. People are generally a bit more mongrel than they portray themselves.

Worth bearing in mind when discussion abstract concepts like 'nationalism' and 'nationality' though.
