A new governance system for Earth

I was just reading about great Eurasian Steppe and something made me feel sad. Because, not that long ago in the history of humankind, it would have been possible for any human to just go where they wanted, to roam the vast steppe stretching for thousands of miles from Asia to Europe, without worrying about borders, about governments, about any kind garbage.

One major collapse of – basically us – yes, that’s correct: A collapse of us, of you and me – is that we’ve lost sight of the fact that we are humans and that we are creatures who live on a planet which we should be free to explore and wander across. And by free, I mean not just in terms of political/governmental garbage, but I mean real freedom, freedom of the soul, the spirit, freedom like a bird has.

Who benefits from the absence of that freedom? Almost exclusively people that are not the ones helping Earth or helping you or me. They are people helping themselves, mostly at our expense. We should wake up and realize this and get in touch with our primal sovereignty as creatures of Earth.

Based on this, I envision an entirely new system of governance for Earth which completely does away with all current governments and replaces them with more local governments. And this new system would deliberately divide up areas into smaller regions without regard for things like culture or language, but merely mapped out according to more-or-less a coordinate grid.

At first this may seem wrong. It may seem that, indeed, it would be better to create regions that are based on geological, ecological, and cultural regions. But the whole point of this would be that what is more important is that everyone, everywhere on Earth is expected to live together and coexist equally and amicably, therefore the regions are just created according to coordinates on the grid.

This also deliberately creates regions which are mixes of different types of environments, geography, ecology, and culture. The fact that it is not based on geography, ecology, or culture keeps people aware that it is a synthetic division merely to enable local-level, regional governance from an administrative standpoint.

People might object that each particular ecological, geographical, or cultural region will have its own interests which are best protected, defended, or advanced by having their own regions, but again, the entire point of this new system is to completely transcend that.

The other main point of this system is to completely remove and replace the present systems of government everywhere on Earth.

Now this does not necessarily mean that any existing governmental or political organizations cannot have a use. In fact I would use the best of the existing governmental and political organizations on Earth as models to create the new system, as templates.

Basically this new governmental system for Earth would be based on a template that is applied equally everywhere on Earth. Imagine telling every human being on planet Earth: “We are now living as a world of one, unified people. In order to establish a new system we will create a new template for government for Earth which will be based on regional governments which will all be equal. All people on Earth will now be equal and will share similar governments, each in their own region. As a human being you are free to go wherever you want on Earth. There will be no more borders. We are also ending all conflicts.”

Basically, under the new system, forming any government will be illegal. All humans will have to accept equality with each other.

Imagine a world governmental system which required every region to be democratic (cf. vote-weight disparity constitutional law in Japan) and to have fair, open elections; which outlaws all money in politics; and which guarantees that all humans have the right and the means to vote. In short, an Earth-wide democracy that is a true democracy and which even enforces democracy when necessary, in the event that any particular region violates the global law and the fundamental principles of democracy, freedom, and human rights.

Humans will no longer be conditioned to think like spectators at sports games, “I’m on side A!”, “I’m on side B!”. All that will end. In place will be one world, one world of human beings equal and free, as it should be and as it must be.

To save Earth we must also save ourselves. Without saving ourselves we cannot save Earth.
