On Brasil, first I thought that he was talking about indigenous nations and maybe he had a point, but it seems he's just spreading nosense separatism, since the map doens't have any relation at all with past indigenous nations. Really, I was hoping too much to consider that he was even pretending to give a damn about indigenous people.

Fun-fact about most of these "nations" in other countries: they were independent, at least, some 500 years ago, ten times more than Europe's 50 years pretending to stop being a set of colonial empires.

Seems that the children of colonisers kept the legacy of making up borders with no historical/cultural basis. I'm actually surprised the boundaries on the map aren't straight lines.

The only thing Euros remember about the criticism of their colonial borders is that people were mad about the lines being straight.
