The nature of the world , is such , that it allows no uniformity . No two physical locations , situations , are identical . In people terms , this means a diversity of identities of languages and customs . This leads to identity politics , different tribes and nationalities . In geographic regions , where there is a greater flow or movement of different populations , there is more tribal or national conflict . Building unitary homogeneous states , in these regions fails . You end up with small statelets , that do not last long and have a fractured and transient nature . The way to overcome this problem , is to recognise these facts , and allow for the existence of small , independent , statelets with each having a more homogenous character , living side by side . And not allowing one side an offensive superiority , to displace others ! For this region it means having two or three statelets , with their respective populations and with arms limitations . Each statelet must be viable , have access to the Sea , mines , water etc .
