    SK doesn’t even want to look at the mess that’s going on at the North of their border.
    Probably the only actual boon from unification would be a bit more of mountainous frigid space and lots of rocky coast. Because unfucking what’s been going on for the last eighty-odd years would make Germany’s unification a Disney holiday.

      I’m sure not having a crazy government with nukes and artillery pointed at their capital would be a non-trivial benefit.

        That is, for their government, a perk. While your people are worried about their neighbors, they do not stop and consider if you’re doing a good job.

          They seem to be handling their budding despots a bit better than certain other places.
