Socialism isn't about endlessly balkanizing the world into microstates, but stitching together humanity to work on the same page, for the same purpose. Capitalism already made humanity incredibly interdependent, socialism just shifts the benefits of that social surplus from going to just a few people in a few countries to the working classes.
