It couldn't be less of a legacy of feudalism.
National governments are the fucking opposite of feudalism.

Go eat some shit and drink some piss, your country made it "hot" after all.

You're right, but the territory of the national-states-to-come was mostly determined by former feudal property.

For example, Germany is/was a conglomerate of German-speaking feudal mini-states.

Yes, the national government of Germany is the opposite of feudalism, because it ignored the small feudal properties, duchies, princedoms etc to crunch it all together based on their languages.

Hans-Hermann Hoppe has a very good passage in his "Democracy: the God that failed" in which he quotes authors from the time when Germany was a lot of mini states in which they say Germany had a lot of high local cultural spots, while France, a unified country, had only like 2 or 3 big cultural centers.

You're forgetting how easily Napoleon conquered all these small pieces and placed them under submission, until they united.
