This isn't directed at you, Takeda, by the way, I suspect that you know this anyway, but it's in response to your response...if that makes sense.  |
Basically, yeah, that is the fly in the ointment. Communities "must be kept as small as possible", but without a regulatory body to keep this from happening, what will stop a group of little states from forming a super state and absorbing their neighbors again?
