> What is a national border anyway if you define yourself more by your tribe than your so called nation?

Largely irrelevant.

The nation state concept was rolled out worldwide over the last 300 years.

It introduces some opportunities like compartmentalizing laws to your advantage but it isn't really relevant to the land.

The problem with nation-states is that if you want a nation to have just one people, you need to cleanse it of all the others. The old empires could be more humane in ways.
Yeah, sadly it works too.
