Merge Rakhine state (Myanmar) with Bangladesh! - US Congress

ALL multi-ethnic countries like India have done so in the past, what makes India any different?
Only Belgium(created as buffer state) has not done so and the two sides cannot stand each other. India has dozens of ethnic groups with no dominant ethnicity.

Anyway as long as BD has plans in place for disintegration of India in future, it should mind it's own business.
India remained as one due to its geography not because of its ethnicity. For the last 2 millennium, it more or less maintained a strong central government.
 
NE states have minuscule population compared to BD. Assam will soon have a Bengali Muslim majority and may break away from India on this basis. Would BD turn down a majority ethnic Muslim Bengali country that wants to merge with it?

Like I say India is totally unnatural union and I expect it to break into many pieces before it gets to 100 years of independence.
Even if the government sleeps and allows the demographics of assam to change, the people of assam and other states will not allow that to happen. And there is no way any northeastern state would merge with bd considering the people of ne india have always resented bengali hegemony. People have been saying india will break up for decades now. It has not happened and will never happen.

@Atlas , Congress might be joking but this is the only way forward , BD need balls and will … Start working towards this goal before enemy start his work.... Rakhin state is the future , now it is up to BD they want to lose territory or gain resourceful land ..

Really? India was conquered and united under foreigners like Mughals and British in the last millennium.

If geography is a factor then why is Europe not one country?

The mughals only ruled northern india. It was the maratha empire that united the whole country.

At it's height before the British took over, it did not include NE and large parts of North Eastern amd South Eastern India.

The north east under the ahoms was not a part of any ither indian empire until the british arrived

Exactly my point.

Look BD has no designs on Indian territory and we have fantastic relations currently.

BD just needs to plan for the fact that one day India will break up.

Since 1000 BC India always had a strong central government. There were few semi independent states at the periphery and there were revolt when central government was weak. But at the end it maintained as unit under foreign and local rule. There were strong empire like Mario, Gupta, Pala, Mogul and lastly British empire.

50% of current Assam was added to the assam by british.That parts needs to reintegrate with the Bengal or Bangladesh and let the rest of the upper Assam become THE AHOM EMPIRE (the great) one more time.

Which ones, please give examples. No two countries are same, India's situation is totally different.

India will survive because of it's majority Hindu population that was almost always ruled by foreign invaders. This is the first time the Hindus managed to get a large enough Hindu country that is ruled by themselves, the Hindus have a lot of grievances against foreign rulers specially the Muslims. India will also survive because of it's strong democratic institutions, these institutions will ensure the RSS and BJP fundamentalists will never manage to go to such an extent that the state itself will become vulnerable to disintegration. India will survive because of it's pragmatic policies of self interest and the country achieving economic development.

As I said, disintegration or loss of territory is possible if world wars happen with two or more belligerents.

It has nothing to do with institution, democracy and lab lab la..
Bottom line is none of the state could be strong enough to resist the central rule.

What do you mean by states being strong enough? How can a state be strong enough in a union? I don't really see Indian states have any significant grievances against the Indian union to seek secession.

Even if they had grievances they cant...

You couldn't have put the following statement about NE any more succinctly.
Even if the government sleeps and allows the demographics of assam to change, the people of assam and other states will not allow that to happen. And there is no way any northeastern state would merge with bd considering the people of ne india have always resented bengali hegemony.
Even before the Tai-Ahoms came to Assam the kingdoms of the time were unique to the region. One thing distinguished the NE kingdoms of the time, they were always united against foreign invasions. We find that the Nyishis of Arunachal, Kangleipak of Manipur and the Dimasas and the Chutiyas of Assam all cooperated with us Ahoms at various periods of time, the common denominator being resisting foreign influence.

Therefore, people are in for a shock if they think that it will be any different this time around.

Already, the entire NE is galvanizing together politically under an umbrella organisation called NEDA under the aegis of our Assamese BJP leaders to protect the rights of the indigenous people. North East India today stands more united than it's ever been before.

People like @TopCat are just salty that their devious designs will not bear fruits in their lifetime nor in the lifetimes of their next seven generations.
