I specifically introduced the idea, that "nation" and "nationality" don't any longer seem to go hand in hand.

And I would go further saying the common man's understanding of the word "nationality" is this

The 'Lectric Law Library's Lexicon On
* Nationality *

NATIONALITY - The state of a person in relation to the nation in which he was born.

Hmmm, but this is interesting:

The Chinese Definition of a Nationality

Officially, China still adopts Stalin's definition of a Nationality:

Official Definition

A historically constituted community of people having a common territory, a common language, a common economic life and a common psychological makeup which expresses itself in a common culture. In the 1980s the Chinese government recognized fifty-six nationalities in China, the majority Han grouping and fifty-five minority nationalities.

Wonder what Stalin has to do with the definition?
