He sees how vulnerable we are, how easily we fall into the hands of tyrants... He also sees that we have potential, that we can find courage. He found that if we communicated as a nation, united...we could be strong again! ! ——"The Postman" line
This is the most memorable paragraph when I watched the movie "The Postman" last night. Today I specially found the movie and copied its lines word for word.

Great harmony in the world is the trend of this world.
From ancient times to the present, from domestic to foreign, from Asia to Europe, from Africa to the Americas, throughout history, looking at the Quartet, all regions are from one after another independent or relatively independent small regions, slowly united with each other , and then move towards great reunification. Only in this way can the region be stabilized, history can move forward, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment.

As far as China is concerned, starting from Yan and Huang, the tribes were gradually unified under the command of the Yellow Emperor through various means (wars, alliances); Xia, Shang and Zhou were in charge of hundreds of vassal states, large and small, and these small vassal states were relatively independent. In a relatively unified form, "unification" was in the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties; from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Qin unification of the world, from the frequent wars to the stability of the world; from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms to the Song Dynasty... China is also gradually moving towards the tide of unification .
As far as foreign countries are concerned, in the 18th and 19th centuries, the United States was a colony of several European countries. Each region was relatively independent, which was not conducive to the development of regions and the advancement of society. Through the War of Independence, regional unification was achieved. Yes, the times have progressed.
What about Europe? Although the national territory of European countries has not changed much, now Europe is also aware of the importance of "unification" and the inevitability of history. Therefore, the European Union has emerged in time. Unite".
Only in a relatively "unified" environment can regions be stable, society develop, and people live and work in peace and contentment.
Globally, the Balkans and eastern Africa are relatively chaotic and fragmented regions. Looking at the social conditions and social development in these regions, it is enough to see which one is the historical direction of unity or division. Which is the trend of history.

When the Internet and modern technology are changing with each passing day, but people talk about the "global village" time and time again, when the various regions on the earth are moving towards "unification", what do the divided regions want? ?
It is not so much that the region is engaged in division, it is better to say that a small number of people have made their own bets on the stable life of more ordinary people for the interests of small groups.
These people are constantly speaking for the people and fighting for the rights of the people, which is absurd and shameless. However, in this world, there is never a shortage of shameless people who make a name for themselves.

Well, that's all. Finally, to repeat the passage from the movie "The Postman":
He saw that we are so vulnerable, so easily fallen into the rule of tyrants... He also saw that we have potential to be tapped, and we can find courage. He found that if we communicated as a nation, united...we could be strong again! !

    There are countless classic American films that reflect patriotism, and many are performed by ordinary people. But the male protagonist in the postman is a super coward and selfish ghost. Even if he is finally led to resist by the Americans (as it is), it is also a brochure for the patriotic people to unite more patriotic people, and the male protagonist has never become noble. Three stars for those unsung heroes!
