Cevap

The correct order from the lowest degree of formal legal authority to the highest is Society, followed by Nation, and culminating in State.
Society is primarily a network of social interactions without formal governance. A Nation adds psychological and cultural unity along with political awareness. The State is the apex of political organization because it exclusively possesses legal sovereignty, a defined territory, and institutional authority.
