Micro-nation states. Give everyone soveignty and the easy ability to go from one to the other. Countries about the size of four counties in developed areas. 20 counties in less developed areas. Then any segregation can be done while everyone has representation. Many areas in the south can be black countries while you might have some mixed countries and everything in between.

But you need a set of rules to prevent war and to keep one nation from getting too large. Something like a maximum nation size (population) before you are split. Make borders democratic. The smallest voting block is the size of a development and if 70% want to move the border is adjusted. Individuals directly on the boarder can select their nationality at will, but no more frequently than once every 5 years.

If you are split the leader must select 1/3rd of the poplulation to become a new nation. The people elect a form of government. If it sucks each development in it starts moving to other nations and the people in it simply physically move a short distance. Pretty soon stable forms of government survive and elected forms of government copy them.

If you suck so bad that you loose population and land you are eventually disbanded. The people elect where they would like to go.

Two things about that. Then why do they pile up together in places like Newport News?

Two, I never said forced segregation can't be a law. If your country chooses that to be a law via whatever form of government you have then that's the law.
