Özet

The state is an independent organization with sovereignty, special mechanisms of control and coercion, and also establishing legal order in a certain territory. State power is a means of implementing common interests, therefore its content is rooted in the particularities of society, its traditions, culture, mentality of the peoples inhabiting the country, as well as in the particularities of state power itself, all its institutions and structures. The formation of the state is a long and evolutionary process. It should be under the constant attention of state institutions and the population. It is necessary to discuss the problems of what our state is, in which state we live, in order to preserve its independence and sovereignty and what needs to be done to make the life of our citizens better and safer.

The formation of the state is a long and evolutionary process. It should be under the constant attention of state institutions and the population. It is necessary to discuss the problems of what our state is, in which state we live, in order to preserve its independence and sovereignty and what needs to be done to make the life of our citizens better and safer.
