My Country

'My Country '. Don't know from where the place I call 'my country ' got the notion of a country. I mean the origin of the universe, and the world is debated between philosophy and science but the notion of a country; where it comes from, don't know.

One can make a guess. Is it the natural force that divided the world among different countries? Or is it the fact that over a period of time many war claims have been made over a piece of land coupled with the force of the state that made a country? Or simply it is The Great Godly force that created countries so as for God to ease His work in handling living beings' accounts and easily pick up when their life term comes to an end?

When one introspects it comes out that natural forces can't be the main reason though it can be counted as one of the many rider factors; because the naming and territorial expansion and contraction have been and are being taken care of by humans. Had God been the originator of the country there would not have been divisions taken out by humans in the name of God. Intense wars and fervour territorial political claims can again not be one of the main reasons, otherwise, half of the world would have been termed one under the banner of England. But on the contrary not only did 'my country' came out of enslavement but also stood together, made a place and fought over each challenge unitedly.

Countering down from all the angles I am able to deduce that it is the feeling of togetherness cemented by some cultural aspects, some physical, social, and economical dependency and deep gratitude towards the land, people, and culture of the country as a whole that brought out the notion of 'my country. So basically it is patriotism that made a land 'my country' and not nationalism which is only a part of it.
