In Germany the Reichsbürger movement denies the existence of the Federal Republic of Germany [30]
That's why the only way of progress would be blending a huge block, like the EU, into one large country....
*nods*....or.....developing a real european nationalism!!!! :) Where we all are only regions....bitching and infighting and rivaling regions of course but also regions which all keep their distinct cultures and dialects and all...but we would be all foremost Europeans...who want only the best for Europe! :)
(...to chose the best european players for our european football team will be the horror, though....)Unfortunately, it's a utopia
Rome did it before....and quite well for a big part.
I would rather say the splitting of empirial regions into hostile, small national states is a rather new thing in our human history.....large empires with many different regions had been much longer the norm.....
