    Thank you!

    It’s essentially a (very rough) social contract between one national ruling class and another, though. The only real experience ordinary people have with them is being stopped at customs or deported. Basically, it’s a capitalist/mercantilist/feudal contract, that dates back to European 1500’s or somewhere thereabouts (edit: mid 1600’s).

    I’m not going to argue with you about it at this point, but it doesn’t seem like it matches, to me.

      And given that capitalism is the dominant ideology in the world today, it should be obvious that borders must exist. Glad you figured this out.
