Nation-Prefectural Relations

Have small countries start building direct relationships with prefectures and states of large countries, and this way endow those states and prefectures with agency and voice in the global stage.

This idea is about making the large regimes and over-sized countries less influential on the global stage.

The problem:

In the global politics, we see words like "Country X vs Country Y, relation Z", and this is in the news, perpetuating the countries in the consciousness of the readers.

An idea:

Have small countries start building direct relationships with prefectures and states of large countries, creating new buzzwords in the global stage, and this way endowing those states and prefectures with agency and voice in the global stage.

This would likely help reduce the influence of oversized regimes.

       I'm thinking this would require a confederation-type system, which isn't likely to happen soon as it requires convincing the powerful to give up power.

       This is already an on- going project within the European Union. See link.
