A Dream - One Country – One Citizenship

Awareness

I am new to this world and want lie I have been reading a lot about crypto currencies and slowly grasping concepts such as distributed ledger, open transactions, talking back owner ship of data generated by a person. And also reading about applications of this open, distributed block-chain which will change everything the way this world works, interacts and communicates with each other.

I thought AI is the next big thing .....

Do you know guys before this I was thinking AI or Autonomous robots weather it is your self driving car or any other mechanical systems is going to be next big thing still this technologies are under development. I myself never paid attention to revolutionary tech which already has been found and people are experimenting with it.

Every body is speculating what kind of future will we see with block-chain currencies like bitcoin, ether smart contracts, steemit or applications of this block-chain like governance of country, Digital voting can become a thing, medical application with smart contracts, send money to anybody without restrictions and Identity hmm…. Identity with this keyword we hit the bullseye,

I read science fiction books a lot and I remember this from one of my favorite books Too Like the Lightning written by Ada Palmer,

“What is a people?” the speech continues, the actor’s voice resonating through the dome. “It is a group of human beings united by a common bond, not of blood or geography, but of friendship and trust. What is a nation? It is a government formed by a people to protect that common bond with common laws, so its members may enjoy life, liberty, happiness, justice, and all those rights we love. Americans, America is no longer your nation. Your nation is the friends who live and work with you, in Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, all of the Americas, and all the other corners of this Earth. Your nation is those who went to school with you, who cheered beside you at games, who grew up with you, traded intimacies with you over the internet, and still today break bread with you in your own house, on whatever continent it stands. Your nation is the organization which you chose to protect your family and property, in sickness and in health, as you traveled the globe to find your ideal home.

“Friends, I stand here today with the leaders of these organizations, to tell you that, once again, the time has come to found a new kind of nation, freer than any that has come before. We speak today for the Cousins, for the Olympians, and for Gordian, three groups which have the means to allow a human being, or a family, to live in this world without a country, without citizenship, without obligations to any power you have not chosen to join. For more than a generation we have not just been your travel agents but your banks, your lawyers, your hospitals, your schools. Now let us be your nations. I call on all Americans who do not support this war to renounce your citizenship and trust us—any one of us, you have your pick. Let us protect you and your families in this new, free world. I call on the citizens of all other countries of the world to respect our members, and accept the passports we will issue, just as you would the passports printed by a country which can boast a blotch of territory somewhere on the globe. Join us if you like, or remain loyal to those geographic nations which still merit loyalty, but either way acknowledge us, and in acknowledging us acknowledge the right of all human beings to choose a different nation if the nations of their birth betray their trust.”

A Dream

Will this happen who knows what I believe is with such technologies where trust is defined in peer to peer communication without any authoritative figures, organizations or any governments you don’t need this divided world with borders. And everybody knows with borders gone we will reach into new territories of this globalisation or global world. Where noone discriminates anybody by race, color, gender or by their nation.

I think there is possibility that this might happen and I am dreamer guys I hope that day come soon.

Saying Hello Steemians!

After all this I will say hello to this new world, steemit communities and my fellow global citizens.

Sort:  

Nothing new with that. More than hundred years ago people, like the Persian mystic Baha'u'llah or L.Zamenhof (Initiator of the international language Esperanto) dreamed such dreams. For some people that sounds like NWO and Orwell...
