and make a single, united planet. instead of what we pretty much already have.

I like this guy, kind of like Machiavelli.

It is my opinion that their will never be peace until one flag rains over the entirety of the human race.

Follow that for a year and a half.
You'll get there eventually.
And the trek will be worthwhile.
I promise.
Hmm... Los Angeles?
Ooh, zing!
And close.
But no. I'll leave a few heads out to point you in the right direction.

There better be a Walmart nearby.
Oh, it's close enough.

thats the plan lol. no one will ever be happy there will always be a ruler who wants to take another "segment" over and add it to his plot. simple human nature prevents most unification plans from happening.

One thing did strike me as peculiar, the fact that you dont count scandinavia and the UK as Europe, let me guess that you are an american...?
Worse, he's a Brit (but it's OK, the "southerners" persecute the English which is the name of the people that live a bit north of the Midlands and a south of the Artic) [it's a joke OP - it's a reference to that comment in the "should the EU become one nation" thread].

OP:

As has already been pointed out what you list is a mix of economic systems and a mix of political systems which are not mutually exclusive, so the premise is flawed right from the start.

Actually, before I continue seriously, what is it with you and trying to merge all countries into one super-commune (first wanting to unite Europe, now the entire world)? Do you not understand that people value their heritage, value the minutiae differences between different socialist democratic republic taxation systems? Humanity has competition hard-coded into it's DNA and no simplistic system could overcome it.

The biggest problem with a 6-nation world would be (aside from language, racism, religion, taxation, resources, international politics) that no-one could agree on a fair representational parliament in any of the 6 nations, because you'd have people from thousands of different creeds, millions of different tax systems and each and every person with a different desire on what money should be spent on, what services should be supplied and so on. You would possibly create more war by inducing eternal civil conflicts by forcing so many different thinkers together into so few systems.

A 'litter'? Of what?



Is it kittens?!

[sup]...kittens...[/sup]
Well, no...I was thinking of a litter

But I guess you can get kittens...they're not very evil, though.

This could never work, because you're assuming that people want these things. Truth is, everybody with a political opinion wants everybody to be like them, they may respect their opinions, but they secretly want them to change it. You're also assuming that the people who live in these divided states want to live in a world as you described. The bottom line, you can't make everybody happy all the time. You try to, and you will fail. The only way for humanity to truly unite, is for people, nations even, to learn to swallow their goddamned pride and compromise with others. Only through initial compromise can other ideas be expressed to nations who don't necessarily want to hear or practice those ideas. The only way for our species to unite is for us to fundamentally change certain views, and while change always happens, it will only happen when the country or citizens therein are ready. Regardless of how beneficial it may be.
NEVER COMPRISE! NOT EVEN IN FACE OF ARMAGEDDON! /switches off Rorschach fanboyism

But yeah, I 100% agree with what you've posted.

Please, say WHY Australia would be better off as an anarchist place.
You obviously know very little about politics and economy.

Theocracy in the Middle East? I laugh. That's the single worst place to set up a theocracy.
Asia should be socialist? Yes, let the Japanese be socialist, see what happens then.
You're also mixing political views with economic views. It's entire plausible to have a Senate, like your S. America and still be Capitalist. Hell, a ton of countries are like that. Plus, only a Senate? Who would watch over the Senate? You need to divide the powers. Go read Bodin, Machiavelli, and John Locke.
A 100% nation would suffer insane inflation, as there would be no state to keep on leash on ridiculous prices and monopolies.

And you left out Communism, which I disagree with, but is quite more popular than monarchy and theocracy.

It'd please everyone - on the account that there won't be everyone left - and definitely stop any wars of human origin. And it has 100% chance of working, as long as one goes with the plan and kills absolutely everyone, including him or herself.

Brilliant, ain't it?
Yeah, mentioned that method on another thread too.

Oh those things. Nice.

I didn't specify what kind of kitten, did I?

Hehehe...
Yep.
Those underlings can haul, too.

You did not, at that...
I suppose some kinds could be seen as evil...but they're still kittens.

I never specified how I'm acquiring said kittens.

Hehehe...
