What is the difference between 상태 and 사태? They both mean situation, don't they?

[daeya_]

From Naver dictionary: 상태 = state, condition,, situation.
사태 = situation, state (of affairs), matter of affairs.

For example: 사태가 심각해지고 있다 = The matter is getting serious.
사태가 수습되고 있다. - the situation is settling down.

<pre> 상태를 말씀해 주세요.= Please explain your condition/status . 몸 상태는 어때요? - How's your physical condition? 상태는 아주 좋습니다 = In excellent condition. </pre>

Thanks, by the way, was the last part meant to be highlighted? It looks highlighted yellow for me.

Is 'state of emergency' too extreme?
Translation tools seem to accept these words but my answer is considered wrong...
