I always wondered why Canada will not get in to the proper trade union with Australia, New Zealand and Ireland. In such union none of the countries would lead, as both Australia and Canada are of similar economies, and New Zealand and Irela

This gets much more attention than it should in my opinion. Its another micro nation that within few weeks no one will remember about. Besides stamps collectors and non-recognized passport holders.

Its not hard to block the river, isn't it. That is why I said "unrestricted". And if you think that international laws will prevent it, well Ukraine get rid of nuclear weapons and got GUARANTEES by Russia, US, China, France a

I didn't said it is impossible, I said it will not allow you to be truly independent. San Marino - under Italian influence. Liechtenstein - Germany. Andorra - Spanish/French. If you would do research on them you would see how many

This is why Liberian country is an utopia. Same with Communist or Capitalist country. Those countries tend to forget one thing - human factor. That humans are not the same and they might not be a "perfect" citizen.

The one thing that project fails to see is that no small nation can be independent without full and unrestricted access to sea or at least proper airport. Sounds like the idea was created by utopians or hobbyist rather than people that know

Actually nuclear plants could be placed in remote islands so electricity would be brought using underwater cables. But then - I think people would never harness nuclear power since it was created as an alternative to coal and oil. Without t

Few more decades and surely she will do something breakthrough! She is given way to much credit imo. Any male CEO by now would be cursed but most stockholders in this situation.

Creators assume you have enough self control to get on without hurting yourself and enough common sense to avoid getting your legs and hands cut off. If you are one of those people that lack both of them - you should take the stairs.
