The tendency today is of dissolving existing nations in smaller and smaller entities.
In 100 years, countries the size of Switzerland and Singapore will be far more common, giant countries like the US or the Russian Federation an exception .
In Europe only, we'll be back to the statelets and city states of the Middle Age.

Piedmont, Lombardy, the papal states, and the Naples kingdom and Sicilia should create "Italy" also, they have similar languages and sometimes succeed in making things work together (but only sometimes)
