Only poor countries are allowed to split. Makes them easier to control. That's why; Scotland, Catalonia, Basque, Quebec, Texas, Arcadia, and the like will always remain under a thumb. However, countries like Sudan, Czechoslovakia, East Pakistan (Bangladesh), Vietnam, Korea, the USSR, are split, forcibly if needed, into smaller and smaller, easier to control blocks. Balkanisation isn't a fix to problems between neighbouring countries, its a weapon to divide ideaologies.
