[A] people descended from the same ancestors, speaking the same language,
professing the same religion, attached to the same principles of government, very
similar in their manners and customs, and who
have nobly established general
liberty and independence. This country and this people seem to have been made for
each other
united to each other by the strongest ties, should never be split into a
number of unsocial, jealous, and alien sovereignties.
-The Federalist No. 2. John Jay
