BTW Czechoslovakia split to Czech Republic and Slovakia a few years after the iron curtain fell. It was a relatively painless process and probably it led to much less tensions later on. It's something like 10 and 5 million people. Probably could split even further and I'd be very curious where is the optimum for 21st century.

EU? I wish it was just a fee trade union, nothing more. At this point it feels more like a government for governments, where my vote means absolutely nothing.

It's probably one of the most successful examples and a case I had in mind when I wrote my note above. 5-10 million people is quite maneageable in today's terms. I would like even smaller communities, but I'm not a maximalist and this is a size I could compromise about.

5m is prob good, 2m maybe better, but of course this is not really applicable to bigger cities which are already much bigger than this.

10m is still a bit too big, you still get several regions with different needs and center-edge disconnects. I'm sure Slovaks would say the same thing, "Bratislava vs the east" etc.

Who knows if it's a good idea anywas? Would it create some very poor countries next to a rich ones just because of some geographic features? Honestly, I don't know even if I like the general idea.
