It's not magic and it's not invisible. And if it's a government for the people, then it's the people that are being authoritarian. Maybe a high-liberties society can only prosper if it protects itself from the outside.

The birds don't seem much to care about our magic invisible lines...

Sorry, bud, it's just monkey stuff.

Are you saying that borders shouldn’t exist because they’re man made?

Borders are a thing, and birds do care when someone invades their nest.

What is not natural is nations.

Nations are a social phenomenon and only sometimes line up with borders. States are what define borders (in fact it's part of the definition of a state).
