Neither.
- Same language: naah, already so many countries speak the same language, still in-fighting. If only we could understand what uncle Kim from the North is telling us. If only New Yorkers could understand Texans... etc
- Decentralized money: naaah... but more like a gut-feeling. Never tested before.
Texans would defeat New York because only one side has guns.
In the case of Korea two different countries despite same language and ethnicity
North Korea 🇰🇵 is a backward economy that cannot feed its people. 80 percent reliance on China 🇨🇳 for electricity and energy and possibly uranium

I read your reply where you quoted Hume.
East and West Germans are like bears vs packers fans?
I am not seeing the analogy. And I follow football.
Bears have been owned by the Halas family since inception.
Packers are owned by the town.
Both are original NFL teams, 1920
