It's only a matter then of finding people who agree on the same purpose as you (a nation), and then creating a state together.

how about agree on your own purpose and then live peacefully with other people who believe in different purposes

It's kind of refreshing, but like, you should recognize that political ideology doesn't necessarily translate into the results you want. Communism and Fascism sound great on paper, but history paints a different picture.

You can't realize live peacefully with people who have vastly different moral systems than you do. Besides, a bunch of people working towards a purpose as individuals will never be able to achieve much at all. You need to work together to achieve truly great things, and you need a state custom tailored to those aims.

What I'm talking about is not specific political proposals. I honestly have no idea how I'd actually go about making my ideal government in practice. My posts just vaguely philosophic rants.
