Johan Goldberg suggests that the unrest in  Belgium will soon spread to the rest of Europe. Scotland would like to wave bye bye to England, the Basque in Spain feel the same way.  Yugo split into six countries, will we see more of the same?  Quebec just nearly split from Canada not long ago, look for a re play of that scenario.  Interesting article, the world may be more fractured than one might think.

Now imagine Alsaka and Western Canada splitting from the US and Canada. The two have natural resource economies that are more the tax target of their other states than anything else.  Could we end up with southern California, AZ, and New Mexico becoming part of northern Mexico?  You will recall that in 1836 the map refelcted that reality, there are those that would have it that way again.
