Unfamiliarity

This world is basically ruled by Hedonism. Technology has taken over our lives and Church and other similar religious entities became irrelevant to the point where those who are religious are seen as crazy brainwashed people in Cults. So people only rely on the 5 senses and their emotions to judge and evolve in their life. Thanks to technology, people are more connected now than ever before and an international agreement was found between different nations to open their borders so country borders would not exist anymore. Only physical, natural borders exist, for example the US and Colombia are part of the same nation now, but America as a continent still exists, as Eurasia is also a continent but France and China are part of the same big nation.
