It is made the attempt to explain why there exists a division between internal symmetries referring to quantum numbers and external symmetries referring to space-time within the description of relativistic quantum field theories. It is hold the attitude that the symmetries of quantum theory are the origin of both sorts of symmetries in nature. Since all quantum states can be represented as a tensor product of two dimensional quantum objects, called ur objects, which can be interpreted as quantum bits of information, described by spinors reflecting already the symmetry properties of space-time, it seems to be possible to justify such an attitude. According to this, space-time symmetries can be considered as a consequence of a representation of quantum states by quantum bits. Internal symmetries are assumed to refer to relations of such fundamental objects, which are contained within the state of one single particle, with respect to each other. In this sense the existence of space-time symmetries, the existence of internal symmetries and their division could obtain a derivation from quantum theory interpreted as a theory of information.
