Maybe you can see (and map) the state park as one thing and the nature reserve 
within it as another? For the state park you would need to say it is a state 
park and has this name and or number (usually there will be an identifier, 
maybe it’s not strictly necessary). The nature reserve within would already be 
spatially connected, but if it is an explicit constituent part of the park that 
would maybe be too weak? Is the nature reserve managed by the state or a 
different government level?
