along what axes will the nation states unbundle into? by axes i mean verticals along which these (network) states compete. I think they will be: - taxes (duh, nations will compete to offer favorable tax rates to retain contributing citizens) - education (not sure, education might very well become a global phenomenon with AI) - healthcare - air, water, and food quality - safety - nature and scenery (the more trees and wildlife, the better) - transport (not sure, in a hyper connected world people may travel less?)

Ideally, we would have open-source (or at least decentralized) manufacturing and computing too to support all of this, as well as some sort of global standard of decentralized access to physical resources. I sometimes worry that nation-states will attempt to prevent network states from accessing raw resources, as farms and mines and oil wells are by definition tied to specific locations. Of course you can trade to get access to resources, but if the current establishment starts to feel threatened by networks, they can certainly fight to prevent network states from accessing those resources.

relationship with nation states sounds like a solid deal maker nation states could allow for network states to form within themselves to form a symbiotic relationship

I hope the nation states will come around to seeing it that way with as little conflict as possible.
