You obviously haven't read and understood what he is saying about 'tribalism', and how it has its roots in ethnic, not civil, identity.

Through the history of our species all the small tribes (thats you) have become extinct.
Yes, with the eternal loss of their distinctive cultures and identity. Wonderful huh?

All the big tribes (Soviet Union,Prussian empire,Romans ect) have become extinct.That leaves the bigger than you and smaller than them tribes(thats me)to carry on the species.
The Romans? Have you no clue, that you write things of which you know nothing about? TENS OF THOUSANDS of people were massacred and died in the Roman Empire due to riots and ethnic conflicts in the large cities. If you think they all had some utopian dream about all being Romans, and ethnicity was nothing, you are completely ignorant!
