Meanwhile I'm here thinking it would be nice if the whole world was made up of countries of that size with a global alliance that will fuck up any country that starts getting all imperialistic.

I hope the Russian federation is going to look like that in some time.

We're the second largest country
On this planet Earth
And if Russia keeps on shrinking
Then soon we'll be first
(As long as we keep Quebec)

We barely have an army
The economy is lousy
But all that doesn't matter 'cause
Canada's really big!

To improve the geopolitical situation or to brag about Kazakhstan being the largest country in the region? You could change your name to BigBorat1!

Pretty sure Americans are gonna do that soon. Then we can convince MAGAland to pay to build a wall around itself

Seems like that would be hard to regulate things like pollution, since there isn't really effective treaty enforcement. Unless we give someone like the UN binding authority on global things like that and enforcement ability.
