Modern political systems are explained in terms of personalities, policies, and events. This book argues the real causes run deeper: outcomes are driven by structure, not individuals, and the structure is broken by design. Through a clear diagnostic framework, it shows how forced coexistence between incompatible groups produces dysfunction that no election, policy, or leader can fix. The patterns that look chaotic are predictable. The reforms that keep failing are failing for a reason. But this book doesn't stop at diagnosis. It proposes a replacement: Neofederal Unifism, a framework that returns genuine sovereignty to communities, starves the parasites feeding on them, and coordinates what must be coordinated through a minimal shared authority. This is a book about what does happen, why it keeps happening, and what it would take to actually change it.
