A huge concert series by Avex Trax that showcases their hottest stars; including Ayumi Hamasaki, BoA, & Koda Kumi. This usually lasts for about a month in the summer, and it visits many major cities throughout Japan.
I can't wait to see Ayumi Hamasaki at A Nation this year!

A term AP Human Geography elitists use to refer to a CULTURAL ENTITY. These elitists will make sure you understand the difference between a "nation" and a "state".
Guy: "Well, I've been to the following nations: Ireland, the UK..."
AP Human Geography student: "Woah. A nation's a cultural entity. Remember?"
Guy: "Here we go again."

The murderous belief that the citizens of one nation have more of a right to live and enjoy life than those of another country, and that the health an prosperity of the citizens of one country is worth any amount of suffering and death anywhere else.
An exerpt of a poem parodying nationalism:
"O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with their little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it-for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen. "

The view that geography is the best means to determine how wealth should be distributed.
"Oh, it seems like our cavalry stopped here in 1786. Ted, your village is almost one hundred metres further down the road. Because of that, we're going to pursue the economic interests of those who built on land which the cavalry crossed, and actively compete against you, no matter how massive the wealth divide gets. Makes sense, doesn't it?"

"Nationalism is power hunger tempered by self-deception."
