Any Country, State, Group, can create their own blockchain and tokens to use as currency for internal trade.

Yes but governments are inefficient & would never build out a system from scratch.

But they will utlize a network like XRP, along with federated sidechains, to issue assets with ease.

according to this infograph, 7 accounts control 15.7 billion XRP, which is too much concentration in my book.

Agreed that it's easier to jump right in to an existing infrastructure, and I won't pretend to know a great deal about XRP, but I see a lot of risk in doing so when the motive is to use the blockchain strictly as a nations currency. The nation should own the entire mining system without depending on foreign resources. A brand new blockchain seems like it would be the best choice for a nations currency.
