This is why borders should be based on watersheds. It drives me insane whenever I look at a map of counties and it's just straight lines through dozens of topographic features that would make sense as borders. Like the native Hawaiians who administered land based on ahupua'a because they correctly recognized water as the foundation of all life.
I think they will in the global communist revolution lol, I really think all states, nations all those borders will dissolve and people will live in bioregions likely mostly defined by watershed. It's the thing that makes sense to me, all your agriculture is defined by your bioregion especially if we try to grow food and transport it way more sustainably. All your timber or other construction materials will be defined by the vernacular of what you can get easily and sustainably in the bioregion. People will think with a global consciousness but I think people will probably define themselves as like "Cascadian" or "Mediterranean" or "Wallacean" (probably have a local word for that one).

Yeah, but how are you supposed to lie to natives who use natural boundaries if you don't use totally made up surveying maps
