Imo, it all depends on the ruler at any moment in time
Power of the ruler is the strongest bond but it does not run deep
Once the Power is weakened, disintegration starts
Or should we say, Oil and Water will separately finds its own level and separates, as both are inherently very different in nature and in structure
Case closed

You are talking about Tharman's "unity figure" news ?
Born - Nationality (Not Fake Nationality) which includes Culture
Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?

U missed out family
1. I have served the nation in a combat unit for 2.5 + 10 years. I had fulfilled my duty as a citizen, but has the country do it's part for me?
2. I don't know where the threat of CCP is, but I know the threat of CECA is already at my doorsteps
3. I had been called a CCP, JHK, Pinoy, but they never called me a CECA..

Culture.
Take example, Mongolia.
They could conquer half of the world when they were very strong during Yuan Dynasty. Due to its weak culture, it did not last for long and assimilated by other cultures.
Only strong Culture will make ppl bond together for very long time.

Sg also needs philosopher. But I don’t think we have any good one at the moment.

Family is a bond that is strong during ordinary times, just like money
Should be very weak as a bond when times are bad or very good
