Why was George Washington so concerned about political parties and foreign nations?
George Washington generally understood the impact of political parties in Britain, and the fact that some European nations (Britain, France, Spain, Portugal & Netherlands) had territories & colonies in the New World. When war breaks out in Europe, often the New World colonies were affected. George Washington wanted to keep the new nation (US) out of European affairs to the extent that rivalries, disputes & wars could spill beyond Europe.
Is America a nation state?
You probably mean the League of Nations. It was formed after World War I (1914-18) to prevent wars from occurring. It is seen as the forerunner of today's United Nations. The League of Nations was based in Geneva, Switzerland, which had been neutral. A key component was the open discussion and negotiation between nations -- in sharp contrast to the secret alliances that existed before World War I.
How did European nation states originate?
The current land division of European countries dates back to the advent of the now defunct Holy Roman Empire, and its distribution of Divine rite to monarchs. The Church of Rome, is the originator of world imperialism.
What are dangers of being a stateless nation?
Nations are states. You will have to define 'stateless nation'. You may be confused by the fact that the word 'state' is used a little differently in the US than it is used throughout the rest of the world. Every sovereign nation can also be called a sovereign state. In the US, we understandably think of states as being sections of a nation. It gets complicated.
Why do you think European nations supported the colonist rather than great Britain?
Because great Britain already wanted to take over the colonies & probobly the rest of the world next!!
