Why is it feminine?
Nazione is feminine because it derives from the Latin "natio" (feminine), which comes from "nasci" (to be born), and Latin feminine nouns ending in "-tio" retained their gender through the regular evolution into Italian "-zione" endings, which are consistently feminine. This follows the standard Romance language pattern where Latin "-tio/-sio" feminine nouns became "-ción/-ción" (Spanish), "-tion" (French), and "-zione" (Italian), all remaining feminine.
