World Unity 1

    The shots fired at British soldiers at Lexington and Concord in 1775 meant that in North America only Canada would develop within the British Empire and the vast lands to the south would develop on their own. The colonists, subjects of the King in London and his Parliament, jumped into the unknown. The defeat of the French at Quebec in Canada in 1763 meant that the whole of North America north of Mexico might have been governed by one body of men in a Parliament in London much as the Roman Empire had been governed by one body of men, the Roman Senate. Local rule would have evolved in the British Empire so that today Canada and the US might have been united in a vast continental union of states with local democratic governments much as in the present provinces of Canada. If the British Empire worldwide had survived up to the present time, a large worldwide union of democratic states would now exist with some kind of central government somewhere where elected representatives from all the English-speaking states would gather to make universal laws binding in their worldwide union guaranteeing universal citizenship, universal democracy, and universal unalienable human rights. This is what we are for, a United States Of The World. The British colonization of the world began a great worldwide union of peoples and it is up to us Americans to finish the job. The central government of the new worldwide union, a government with limited sovereign powers, is  already established in a location, Washington in the District of Columbia, that is not a national territory. How can anyone in our world that has been tragically torn apart in the past by wars begun by nation-states and that is being tragically torn apart today by civil wars within nation-states not see that the worldwide union of all states is a necessity and is a real possibility? It can be begun today by some nation-state petitioning the Congress in Washington to become another state of the United States. All the states of the world need to jump into the unknown as we Americans did in 1776 when we declared our independence from Britain.
