One Government
I used to be against the idea, mainly because I didn't think it was possible. But recently I have become a strong supporter of the idea.
We often overlook one world governments as something evil that will destroy diversity but is this really true? Not if it's a global federal republic. With individual states and provinces keeping their own diversity and identity
United States is a perfect example. It was one of the first federations ever tested. Each state within the Union kept a lot of their rights and the central government served primarily to protect safety and the rights of each person.
Now if we extended this to the global level it should work. Many people would argue that the world is just too big. It is diverse in both religion and language. But there is a perfect country that dispels this myth that. The country is India.
15 religions are within India which does not including the sub religions in Hinduism and Islam and Christianity, ect. Those are broad 15 religions.
1752 languages including all dialects.
22000 languages including all subdialects.
4600 ethnic groups in total and many more are to be found.
1000 different type of tribes.
10 broad type of ethnic groups (Caucasoid, mongoloid, indo Aryan, Dravidian, Negroid etc.)
The country may have some internal conflict but at large it is relatively peaceful.
Nationalism in my opinion is not the best way the modern world should operate. We should be looking at things as "my fellow Americans, my fellow Indians, my fellow Chinese, and my fellow Europeans, ect." We should be looking at humanity as a whole. The world in reality is one country, with mankind as its citizens. But remember each state can maintain their language, culture, ect. The central government shouldn't force one culture. Diversity should be celebrated, not a reason for war.
This new world government would be primarily libertarian but with a good amount of government control to protect the people and their rights.
This would also lead to one military used to put down rebellions and insurrections. This is a good thing because each country spends a lot of money on military instead of a good police, fire squad, Medicaid, and public education for children.
I also think once the one world government is installed; human trafficking, drug trafficking, and weapons trafficking will be more rare because the various states will work together to eliminate international illegal activities.
One of the biggest threats to life on Earth is a meteor or comet from space hitting out planet. Global Warming is one issue, but being hit but an object from space can wipe out the world. Yet only the American government has any sort of research being done in order to find asteroids and prevent such a disaster. Shouldn’t it be a global effort?
One Language
This isn't that necessary but I do believe a common language would help the world communicate better. In addition to knowing their native tongue they can learn a sort of "international" language that is created by combining the major world languages today.
One Religion
This maybe the most unnecessary as we can easily have a secular world government. However having an official religion based on science and rational thought, meditation, ect. while having laws of tolerance for other religions would work IMHO.
