I just believe that because each nation governs differently from her unique culture, it seems foolish to mix an antithetical people together.
For example, the Germans who drink beer and the Russians who drink Vodka drink through custom because of their cold climate.
The Arabians readily adopted the Mohamet law against wine as in prior times it was already tradition to mostly drink aqua; wine dehydrates and is dangerous in the desert Sun.
Likewise, the Carthaginians had a law against drinking of the wine, and their climate was really the same!
Egypt is hot, why was she different?
Egyptians possess the great Nile, so her slaves could dull the pain of labor with that pleasurous liquid.
At the marriage of Cana, the Savior turned water into wine because Mary told him so in order to keep the wedding guests happy.
Give strong drink to those in trouble, and wine to be drunk by them who are in sorrow;
that they may forget their distress and no more remember their troubles.
—Proverbs 31:6-7
If no unity could be found on the matter of alcohol, what on deeper passions such as religion?
Or the frustrations and weaknesses that arise when one cannot understand his fellow countryman?
If the language is foreign to the tongue, what, then, when it tastes unfamiliar foods?
Or when the eye spots a foreign dress that is not suited for the climate, but persists from loyalty of a foreign custom?
Or when the eye sees a landscape dotted with alien architecture?
Soon, the habitat in which his ancestors built and maintained will be squandered and he will not recognize his own country.
This would naturally create intense friction and result in resentment.
If the cards were to be shuffled and people mixed, would Sweden not, then, find itself segregating itself?
The laws would reflect the areas and the original way would cede ground to those that have been lost to the foreigners.
Is it in the benefit of a nation to have the area on which one's religion is sacred, traditions are honored, language is spoken, clothes are worn, food is eaten, and architecture inhabited to slowly become less and less square miles, until one's country is unrecognizable?
I would say that such a society would have perished before the Stars, having gone the way of the Romans.
