The Economist has an interesting article on the definition and attributes of a nation.
Somaliland, has met this standard with increasing impressiveness since it declared independence in 1991. It has a currency, car registrations and even biometric passports.

True sovereignty is demonstrated by a state having two attributes:
1.) It's own airline.
2.) It's own brand of beer.
Actually, my Poli Sci 101 prof explained that a sovereign nation is one that can lawfully kill its own citizens.
