Nation is fine because it's a relatively neutral and ambiguous term. We're a country made up of nations.

I'm not even going to limit to four - what we call the West Country was basically once a Celtic kingdom called Dumnonia, so there's no reason that can't be one of the Nations too! Rock on, Scotland, Wales, Norn Iron, Dumnonia, and England!!

It's not about liking or disliking PR. It's about having a system already in place which isn't compatible with PR.

You sound like you have an ear to the ground, do the plans go beyond "we should have PR," are there proposals as to how the seats would be distributed in a representative manner, compared to what we have now?
