He knew he was our servant period, clicking on the "secondary education of our atlas" of 
color allocated to each country in the political map of the region, was separated by lines 
drawn on a team looking for. World political map with some areas created by the notches we 
open our way, people perhaps too bloody wars limits giving the impression that the outcome 
is determined, while in parts of the world, in the interests of state and capital has 
almost a straight line "shared" territory, so he evokes the stolen lives. ---- Border, 
various treaties only between countries, negotiations or created after the war of barbed 
wire, etc mined from land. section is formed from a reality. In these regions, the state 
and the interests of the capital of that region, in line with the economy, that limit how 
and why it occurs or from time to time in accordance with what is necessary to examine the 
interests of the ruling was changed.

Close locations, after about 4 years of post-civil war which actually changed the Syrian 
border, early last summer, with the capture of Isidor Mosul in Iraq's major cities, the 
border was altered this state. Approximately 100 years ago, in 1916, the First World War 
still on-going, including conducting secret negotiations with Britain, France and Tsarist 
Russia and the states signed by Sykes -Picot determined Treaty, so to speak, which 
evidently drawn with a ruler, as a result of the interstate sharing equation with this 
side "drawn "It can be said boundaries no longer exist. Period of the state and the owners 
of capital, capitalism in the early 20th century, drawn in accordance with the terms of 
the development period they want to create a Middle Eastern nation-state boundaries 
changed again today in the interests of differing state and capitalist.

Again, in a region that may be called close, at the end of 2013. In Ukraine, after the EU 
between supporters and opponents of internal conflicts began, he declared independence 
before the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, then connect to the Russian Federation. This 
occurred in Ukraine rebellion after the process, in other words, the Crimea to Russia, the 
Ukraine pro-EU-Russia anti-EU "connected". These limits are also in geography, the early 
1990s, at that time, one of the world's two superpowers Soviet Union distributions 
determined by the said 15 new countries emerged in Eastern Europe geography with this 
development. That period of global capital environment "New World Order" in what he calls 
this new boundaries created in the doctrine under which owns the same period in Central 
Europe (Czech Republic and Slovakia) and the Balkans, Yugoslavia's bloody form of 
distraction, more state and the emergence of new border caused to rise.

Early in the last century states, the limits set in accordance with the prosperity of the 
capitalist oppressors ie, at the end of the same century and again in the early 21st 
century that followed it was redesigned as amended in the framework of their changing 
interests, is.

In this process through the past, the oppressor of the boundaries belirleyegel 
stubbornness, our region is experiencing another experience. In support of the State 
palazlanp, terrorized the people of the Middle East Isidor Koban?l against the Kurds, has 
recently been resisting a month for life. Their resistance down to removing the boundaries 
to include TC resistance in the struggle against the oppressors "border that" showing, in 
a sense, also gives clues about the unlimited world of our imagination.
