Everything is artificial geopolitical lines. People attach their own values to those artificial lines.
Personally, I attach values on a basis of Family > Community > City >Area> Province > Region> country.
I honestly can't imagine seeing it any other way. People near you are more important than people further away and I naturally want decision making and tax revenue to remain as close as possible to me.
