As I note in the essay, the word nation literally comes from 'natio' meaning birth via Old French nacion, meaning 'birth.' A notion of shared birth-origin is the root meaning of the word.
Consequently, I'd contend that while there are a lot of ways to group people, for that grouping to be a nation, the myth of common origin - in particular the myth of a common *birth* origin is non-option. Other groupings are no less real, but they're not nations.
Looking at the emergence of nationalism in Europe in the 18th-19th cent., the primacy of an imagined common genetic origin was central to the idea and no one was particularly subtle about it. I talk about that a bit here: https://acoup.blog/2020/02/14/collections-the-fremen-mirage-part-iiib-myths-of-the-atreides/ … in pursuit of a larger point.
Note that this was absolutely not true in the genesis of Irish nationalism. Tone, McCracken and many of the other leaders of the United Irishmen were presbyterians who arrived with the plantation of Ulster, and did not make a particular attempt to hide this.
