What does State Capacity mean?

Hi,

In a 2005 UN article (or speech) about terrorism, it has been written (or said):

"fourth, to develop state capacity to prevent terrorism".

The above is one of five elements that consist a global strategy of fighting terrorism.

What I'd like to know is the meaning of State Capacity.

Thanks in advance.
