Guide Card
Welcome! The concept of a nation– state is notoriously dif-
ficult to define.
In our modern world many of the traditional boundaries
and barriers between nations have become obsolete. In-
formation, products, services and culture can be shared
around the world at a faster pace than ever before. How-
ever, like most things in this world the answer is not black
or white, but rather a shade of grey.
Nation states have many benefits to them, but they can
also cause tension in our world.
This is one of those ways with which efforts were com-
bined to let you learn and at the same time enjoy identify-
ing the difference of nation-state. As you worked on with
the given activities in each of the learning sequence you
were provided with opportunities to reflect and understand
that there’s more to nation and states than expected.
Through these activities, you were gradually intro-
duced to the essential knowledge and concepts
you needed to learn about nation-state. And as
expected, you enjoyed them a lot! But those activi-
ties were not the end. Comprehension was just a
beginning of a bigger and better picture. You were
provided with opportunities to express and
demonstrate your understanding of the benefits
that you can derive from engaging and participat-
ing for you to understand the 2 concepts by an-
swering the mind– extracting and thought- pro-
voking questions given.
