The coercive power exercised by nation‑states over individuals and communities, justified as natural and necessary, but often serving elite interests. This tyranny includes border enforcement, conscription, surveillance, taxation, and the monopolisation of legitimate violence. It also operates ideologically: the nation‑state is presented as the only legitimate form of political organisation, making [alternative] structures (federations, bioregions, anarchist communes) seem utopian or dangerous. The tyranny is maintained not only by force but by [nationalist] sentiment, education systems, and the internalisation of state authority as [common sense].
