Nations of 1

I have this idea that, at birth, the human being should be an independent nation/country/state.

Why would one loose this right straight from birth and not have a say about upholding independence or decline it and become part of a larger nation/country/state?

Or: at any point in time, during the life of one, one should be able to redeem one's independence form all and any nations/countries/states. Once independence gained, all countries should respect it as such and contact established (or not) only by normal diplomatic agencies.

Of course, this is an answer to the movement towards Globalization and goes in the opposite direction, maybe to an extreme, hopefully on a correct philosophical premise. In the subsequent postings I would like to analize exactly that.
