WATCH: Frames in Unit 2
The world in 1750 had many types of communities with different forms of government. But for the most part, people were subjects—they were governed by others and had few political rights. The nation-state was a new kind of government in which a nation of citizens could govern themselves in a particular territory. In this period, a number of nation-states were formed, and they have since come to dominate the world. But this was also an era in which many people were under the rule of empires, and remained subjects, rather than citizens.
