Is it me, or are we approaching the point where "nations" as we know them will go away and all that will be left are corporations (to run the world based on geographical location) as in the 1975 film "Rollerball"?

Rollerball is for you ladies! The borders of the nations of tomorrow will be decided through battles fought by HUGE robots controlled by a man as seen in the classic "Robot Jox" of 1990!
