the concept of "nation" will be greatly redefined.

various articles I have read are referring to Greece as a new Vassal State.

that would mean that an outside nation will controlling it.

but with Greece, I don't believe that will be the case, instead it will be controlled by the banks.

So when a bank controls an entity that was once private, what is that called? or is there a word for it?
