um...ok...so are these different? Is a Nation the same as a Kingdom? Or is it the USA as a nation and say Britain as a Kingdom? Do I read into that that Britain will have to elect a King first?

A Nation is usually defined as a group of people distinguished by a common identity, and almost always by a common origin.
What you are thinking of in terms of countries is a Nation-State or just simply a political state. And the Queen is the King (Monarch).
