国家が増えれば争いが増える
パレスチナで紛争が起きている。第一次世界大戦までは、パレスチナはオスマン帝国領であり、オスマン帝国は帝国内で宗教に寛大な政策をとり、イスラム教徒も、ユダヤ教徒もキリスト教徒も仲が良かったという。
オスマン帝国は、第一次世界大戦でドイツと共に敗戦国となり、領土が現在のトルコだけとなった。単純に考えると、大国が分裂して国が増えて、争いの種が増えた訳である。
国家が増えると戦争のリスクが増大するのなら、世界連邦のような機構を作って、国をその中に入れて国家を減らせばよい。連邦への加盟と同時に武装解除を並行して行えば良い訳だ。
理屈は簡単なのだが、現代の人類は互いに信頼しあい協調する心が欠けているのだろうか？
The more countries there are, the more conflicts there will be.
There is a conflict in Palestine. Until World War I, Palestine was part of the Ottoman Empire, which had a religiously tolerant policy within its empire, and was said to have had good relations with Muslims, Jews, and Christians.
The Ottoman Empire was defeated along with Germany in World War I, and its only territory was present-day Turkey. To put it simply, major powers split up, the number of countries increased, and the number of conflicts increased.
If the risk of war increases as the number of countries increases, then we should create a structure like the World Federation and reduce the number of countries by incorporating countries into it. It would be a good idea to join the Federation and disarm at the same time.
The theory is simple, but do modern humans lack the spirit of mutual trust and cooperation?
