How about a North/South Korea, and an East/West Korea? All four quadrants meet at Panmunjom. You can cross on the diagonal, but never a row or column.
North Korea and South Korea isn't working. Let's try West Korea and East Korea instead.

We should simply send Japan in to take over the island
That’s not a problematic thing to say, right? No historical reason why it would make Koreans incredibly angry?

An unorthodox way to correct the geographical travesty of Botswana, Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe being less than 200 metres from creating the world's only international quadripoint

What if it’s upper and lower Korea? Everything above the average elevation of Korea is upper, the rest is lower

These lines are not straight enough, they appear to follow already established administrative borders. I propose a straight line that completely ignores all this. I think that is the only sensible solution.

Let’s split the difference and have some Brits redraw the lines at random, they’re great at it!

Let’s leave the border the same. But just to spice things up, we’ll move all the South Koreans to North Korea and all the North Koreans to South Korea. Then they’ll just swap places every ten years. It will so whimsical!

Man I wish we could have had your input during peace deals.
WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Every 10 years the Israelis have to all move to Gaza, and the Gazans get to move into Israel. They trade places every ten years.
Dicska@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
It would surely be much more peaceful. Let’s just re-draw the borders and leave everything else. Just look at them spooning lovingly.

No we do fractal districts. They get infinitely more detailed as you zoom into them.

Is-Raël (of the Raëliens) and East Palestine, Ohio
That way everybody is only mildly miserable like the rest of us instead of fully miserable.
andros_rex@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
The Raëlians seem fun. Supposedly they have big orgy where you wear colored bracelets indicated what genders you’d like to have sex with. I’m sure there’s some dark and evil shit, like all religions, but that sounds hella fun as long as everyone is of age.

Stop the geonicide by force if necessary. Send all the Europeans, Americans, and Canadians back home. Have trials, then hangings. Return all stolen land/property to the victims (or their descendants) of the colonizers. You know, post geonicide things.
