I wonder in what year the world’s third largest country (by population),

 

 

 

 

will get to have their own

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And play for

 

 

 

 

 

.

 

Could we one day see a World Cup Final between Facebook & England or maybe even dare we dream versus the USA?

______

Here’s where I’m going with this…

*With over 550m users they’re (we’re) the worlds third largest population.
*With them now offering these

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

where you can purchase products they (we) now have an economy that’s not tied to geographics.
*Let’s face it, many people are much more active & involved in this country,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

than they are in the one where they are domiciled physically.

—

Really though, national identities are created by man-made geographical boundaries. It’s just the latest version of tribalism…or the “Mine” game: think…

 

 

 

 

 

 

What does it mean to be a grouping of people bound by a common identity, a common culture, common artifacts, common rules, or a common economy?

Are we seeing the beginning of countries that transcend land boundaries?

Multi-national corporations began to spell the doom of the nation state will social space connectors like Facebook give rise to new and more prevalent ways of people grouping themselves?

Will people see themselves, for example, as more part of a “Facebook” country than and American one or a British one?

This is a crazy crazy time we’re living in. Who knows what the coming years could hold.
