>The US doesn't even have a single energy grid despite being a single country.
That is because America technically is not or should not be and what definitely not founded as "a single country". The USA was supposed to be and by law, i.e., the constitution should far more be governed like a ~2005 EU. The Federal government is in many ways extremely illegitimate in how it acts in illegal ways in direct violation and contradiction with the Constitution, i.e., the supreme law of the land, i.e., the highest law above which even Federal legislators cannot act without violating the law.
It is one of those fundamental things that the vast majority of people even in the USA simply do not comprehend on an even basic level, not even to mention anyone outside of the US. It's one of those obvious and blatant lies that humans somehow have the capacity to simply live with as if it is not a lie.
It is an odd phenomenon when one is able to recognize the mass delusion for what it is. Imagine being somewhere in a group and all the sudden everyone in that group but you insists that grass is in fact not green at all, but rather purple. You would be astonished and confused at first and incredulous as to what is going on, before you went through some phases to rest on a kind of bargained acceptance of "ok, well I guess we are doing that now", regardless of how insane and stupid it is.
