Reification is the process of treating an abstract concept as if it were a concrete object. For example, treating a nation as a person with emotions and intentions, or treating a company as a living entity capable of decision-making. This can lead to anthropomorphism and simplification of complex systems.
Personification is when human qualities are given to non-human entities, while reification is when abstract concepts are treated as if they are concrete objects.
