I also think so, and its a good thing. I hope something similar happens with the US and North America--there ought to be a North American Union among the US, Canada, Mexico, and so forth.
--------------- Supernational governments are likely to be the future of society, and may hopefully help to prevent some of the problems in current nations, such as in Iraq, Israel-Palestine, Ireland, Korea, etc.
There to has to be some way to deal with trouble spots other than force them to lump together into artifial "nations", like Iraq.
I think in many cases, national governments fail to address the needs of minorities, so there ought to be some kind of larger regional government, while at the same time small areas with some autonomy.
Eventually, of course, the whole world ought to be governed this way, eliminating sovereign nations all together. There would obviously be resistance by many current nations, so it has to be done gradually.
