That quote basically means that a nation is only as strong as the wills of those who will support it. So, if a country has a bunch of sneaky, lazy people, it will not be as great in the eyes of history as one with honorable, hard-working ones. So, yes, I think that it works both on individual and collective levels.

Nationality is an arbitrary division of two groups of people based on geography.
