Nope.
Never
.When the aliens invade.
That's just one thing. There are so many more problems, I just don't see it happening.That will never happen unless religion is somehow removed from people's minds.
Or its gonna be like Alpha Centauri where we all agree to leave behind nations and old Earth prejudice when we go to colonize a new planet, but just start fighting over philosophy instead. You can't exactly breed opinions and preference out of people.
Post scarcity society where robots do 99% of the heavy lifting. Probably well into some form of physiological modification too. Think bionic man type shit where we're all smarter and more capable of logical thought instead of having things devolve into cultural bitch fests and other nationalistic concepts.
150+ years
It'll never happen, and I'll even go as far as to say if there is another planet out there in our universe somewhere with advanced intelligent life, they aren't unified as one either.
When advanced emotions are involved, it's basically impossible on a large scale.
Trust me, even when we are all highly evolved 4D plasma intelligences we are still going to be arguing over who knows best. Perfect consensus will never be reached so long as opinions are to be had.
I'm thinking technological singularity or a massive paradigm shift in our evolution. So not for a while.
If ever. Is such a thing possible? Or even worth persuing? Is the very question too anthropocentric to be of any worth?
come one guys I need a resonable number
year 5000? i mean we're already at 2017 and the world is pretty damn connected with whatsapp
Honestly? Never, short of some cataclysmic event that hits humanity so hard that the concept of nationhood becomes outmoded. But then we'll just go right back to "me/my family/tribe/people first" and be back where we started. Humans are inherently social, but also inherently selfish, and you can best believe that anything bad enough set us back to square one isn't going to create an environment good for improving that.

When human genetic modification goes mainstream. So about 80 years
Sooner than people here think.
500 years ago we need didn't have nations and countries as they exist.
The world is slowly coming together. Once it does, it will be bloated and ugly and flawed but we will get there.
