That is it seems more a tool of the "leaders" & a divider of the ppl rather than a uniting factor or promoter of of cooperation.....
Certainly though we in the usa & the west do enjoy many advantages w/ the status quo....

Obviously, once you have two or more of something, in this case autonomous countries, there's an automatic division in culture, language, economy, war mongering, etc. I think there's something like 250 nations in this world and most are unique in many ways. So the division which is created by having 250 nations generally will not create the best possible situation for the billions of citizens.
It's really amazing when you think about it but billions of people, including those in the USA, either live in a dictatorship or something close enough to this that the people feel their lives are managed by a few in government. How .000001% of the people in the world find a way to control the other 6 billion is an interesting thought?? Of course, this handful of presidents and dictators and military rulers, probably are the least sane of the 6 billion people, and 90% of our world issues are rooted within these devious minds...these narcissistic people...these power-mongers...these greedy and arrogant people.
We have the same issues on a different scale within the 50 states of the USA. It's each state for their own with little to no alignment with other states. What would happen if all US states were given complete sovereignty--probably power-struggles and chaos?
I'm all for having the 250 unique nations in the world, but I would prefer that on some level, they all were required to abide by world laws...
