43. There are, of course, nations without states and multi-national states: both types are defined, however, as exceptions to the rule, discovered in the very practice of the nation-states system. Nations without states and multi-national states are therefore defined in relation to the accepted norm of nations with states.

So, for example, France discovered its origins variously in the misty days of the destruction of Troy, the German Romantics rediscovered their medieval 'Teutonic' roots and both have at different times claimed to be the true inheritors of Imperial Rome.
