I hear about this a lot on the Science Channel, it is an interesting concept. But I don't see a Type 1 civilization, as a 'world government' coming anytime soon. Tons of cultures on this planet are still inferior to Western Civilization and it's not PC to say, but we can't live under the same form of government. I wouldn't even want to live under a North American superstate, imagine how horrificly unbalanced the politics would be. Canada & Mexico are extremely liberal, borderline Socialist, nations. How is that fair to the Conservatives in America? No Republican would go for it. So the whole idea to me seems a little far-fetched right now.

As for the European Union, it is ending up a disaster. In theory it's a good idea, but due theres already been a problem with immigrants & centralization. And the fact that the people didn't vote to be in the EU, I find disturbing & not heading into the right direction.


As for a world culture & world langauge we basically already have that developing.
