Call me realist but our sun will die in about 5 billion years taking earth with it.
The chance that the human species or any of our constructs/ideas wil survive that long or longer is immensely small considering we have only been around for 300.000 years. The chance we do that and somehow still care to divide ourselves into different nations and cultures is 0.

Call me a dreamer, but in that time, maybe we can figure out how to preserve Sol as a type G main sequence yellow star. Not saying we necessarily should, nor that we would necessarily even have any need or want to. Just saying, that’s a long time, and a big enough margin for uncertainty in that natural fate not succumbing to some yet-to-be-invented intervention. ;)

Some evidence suggests we[homo-sapiens]'ve been around far longer. And what of who we were before that, and who we may become yet, in the branchy continuum of evolution. What we yet may manage to preserve remains to be seen. Even trans-temporal conscious/technological shenanigans, transcends this mere “chance”. Perhaps it better we do not leave these things solely to chance.
The chance we do that and somehow still care to divide ourselves into different nations and cultures is 0.
If rounding. But not by much rounding required at all… beyond astronomical odds. Yup. Or so it seems from here. We may be in error with our estimations.
