A nation state is an uncommon example of a country with only one nation :)
Japan is a good example of a nation-state because the vast majority of its population shares a common culture, language, and history. The country is relatively homogenous in terms of ethnicity and the government structures reflect a unified national identity.
a country that no longer exists.
The USA is not a nation state but rather is a Union, a nation state derives political legitimacy from the fact that it is a sovereign entity that is part of the country. A good example of a nation state is Japan. The Union system used by the USA is where the states remain under the entire country.

Nation is the society, the democracy, the people, the geography, the environment, and the state manages the rules dictated by the government. State is the country as viewed by another countries, and nation is the country as viewed by its population.
Liechtenstein is a state, and independent country and a nation. All these terms are interchangeable. P.S. A "state" can mean either an independent country, or the sub-divisions of a federal country.
Not always. A country is a state, however, a state is not always a country. For example, the United States is a state, because it is a country. However, California is not a country, as it is only a state. A state is usually a self governing region within a country, and you will rarely hear a country being called a state just for the sake of confusion. However, it is common to refer to a country as a nation.
