China has a population is 2 billion, because thousands of years ago, they conquered 100s of smaller groups to create the “Han Chinese” identity. Rome tried with Europe and almost succeeded but failed, which led to the idea of “country”, essentially the fallout of the collapse of the Roman Empire led to small clans becoming kindoms, which led to governments.
The premise of my argument is that Somalia has succeeded where Rome failed 1700 years ago. we have a homogeneous people with the same religion, language, and value systems. I think the idea of “government” is byproduct of a collapse civilization. A Somali will always be a Somali wherever he goes, and will create more Somalis. The idea of government or country is just modern day serfdom used to lock people to the land because there is no unifying alternative. To the Europeans, “land” is a prison. And Somalis don’t have that problem, and we should stop looking to Europe as a solution to our problems.
