Reasons?
- Resources.
- Land. (imagine your nation grows - you'll want more land for your people to live in)
- Vandetta.
- Military Coups.
- Domination over other nations for wealth, power, and status in the world (be it by culture, political influence, or military influence). No one wants to be the small guy when there's already huge nations out there.

I dont know about poland but i do know germany wasnt unified until 19th century.
And resources. If a Sunni (non-Kurd) Iraq stayed in Sunni lines, they wouldn't get much oil, for example.The Last Conformist said:They'd start fighting over the mixed territories.
They care a lot when they don't have a country to call their own.VRWCAgent said:Of course Poland is almost completely Polish. By definition, anyone who is a citizen of Poland is Polish, citizen of Japan is Japanese, citizen of America is American, and so forth.
I do see the validity at all in recognizing ethnicities. Who cares about that anyway (there is one exception, but let's not get that whole religious thing going here)?
Bad idea. These groups will divide further and further until you have 6 billion countries like Xenocrates estimated. Fights for land and resources will increase for the reasons that Chieftess already said. You'd have single family kingdoms and half acre empires all over the globe, each fighting each other for gain or for gripes real and imagined.Bozo Erectus said:How about if every nationalist, independence movement in the world was allowed to secede and become an independent nation? The Basques, Tamil Tigers, Kurds, Uigers, blah blah and all the rest. Do you think as a result there would be less warfare and strife in the world, or more?
