I've been thinking for a while, when a country gets too big, something gets lost. I've been looking around at countries I'd like to move to. They are small. Its as though when a country gets too big, tesults in too many conflicting interests, and in the end all the different interests get drowned out by whoever is in charge. Small country same thing happening but because the country is small enough, only so many interests can be contained, so it more accurately reflects the will of the people.

Exactly; I've been thinking for some time now that the natural state of human organization is a lack of representation. Once a populous gets so large as to defer authority to make decisions on behalf of the people, it is too big. We're still a long way from returning to that state, but it feels like we're making our way back with Singapore, the UAE, and El Salvador somewhat leading the way.
It’s a question of central planning vs localism and scale. The scale of central planning on El Salvador does not compare to the scale of central planning in the US, or the Eulag.
