Is it possible, at this stage, for geographically large countries with very large populations to move forward in a coherent way?
All of the better places to live, as rated by purchasing power, health, education, what have you, are either geographically small and or have a small population.
China, India, Russia, Brazil, USA - all these big places with big pipulations rank poorly in some number of quality of life indicators.
Australia, Canada, New Zealand aren't without their problems but seem to suffer a less severe case of the issues. And then there's those Scandinavian countries which rate highly.
The smaller the population, the higher the variance. Large countries are not bad, they are average. The worst countries, like the best, tend to be small.
