What is the minimum critical mass for a viable state (excluding Grifftopia, of course)?
Is Georgia large enough to stand alone? South Ossetia? Abkazia? I heard that there are as few as 100,000 native Abkaz's (sp?) remaining. How can that be enough to form a stable state? Especially in the location under consideration here? And under the circumstances you describe, having been "given to" Georgia. Perhaps Ohio is large enough to be a viable independent state. What would the US response be to a (hypothetical) "breakaway" by Ohio? It's pretty ugly from all directions, I admit. But our own interests must include a demonstrable effect to being called an "ally", don't you agree?
