The term “state” can also refer to the secular branches of government within a state. That which derives it’s identity from a government or Monarchy.

A region or a location which exists to benefit the western colonial masters that colonized it.

A state is not a government:
A state is not a government, a state is just a colony which was once colonised, after gaining it’s independence, it became a state which is ruled by the executive (state of emergency) and administrated by the monarchy as a member of commonwealth.

After the granting of independence to the colonised colonies, the colonial masters changed their colonies into states.

Difference between a state and government:
A state can be distinguished from a government. The government is the particular group of people, the administrative bureaucracy that controls the state apparatus at a given time. 

A president is ruler designed to execute or enforce law over a state, whereas a prime-minister is there to administrate the affairs of a government.

Governments are the means through which state power is employed. States are served by a continuous succession of different governments. States are immaterial and nonphysical social objects, whereas governments are groups of people with certain coercive powers.
