Nation-state

Israel's nation-state law served as a rallying point for those who believed the country could not simultaneously be democratic and a Jewish state.

Israel is the Nation-State of the Jewish people.

Two years on, and while the Sultan of Slowjamastan has instigated more than a few bizarre laws (he’s outlawed the wearing of Crocs, for example), the Republic also has all the trappings of a fledgling nation-state. It issues its own passports, flies its own flag, prints its own currency (“the duble”), and has a national anthem that’s played on state occasions.
