Unified societies function better than non-unified societies, yes. But larger societies outcompete smaller ones.
When the Angles and Saxons can put aside their ethnic difference to unify into an empire, the empire can span the globe and put the Japanese in the shitter.
Obviously the situation in the USA isn't tenable, and it was probably made to be that way. But it wasn't because the Germans and Italians and Irish necessarily failed to create an ethnostate, being of different ethnicities. It is because the cancerous tribal crab-bucket cultures of urban poor was nurtured as something equally valid to our greatest traditions. Which it isn't.
Well said. Equally valid. Its like the whole “fat is beautiful “ thing. This person’s grotesquely fat body is equally beautiful to another person’s fit, active and attractive body.
You're confusing culture and ethnicity and race.
