If there were no people, would there be a national consciousness? If such a think exists, it is the sum of parts, so it is partially within the body (if what you say is real).
I want to add that there was a study in Princeton designed to prove the existence of a Global human consciousness. It ran for 15 years and proved the hypothesis with odds in favor of a trillion to one.
