What about the USA without any long history ? A hundred varied ethnicities live together and have combined to produced the world's strongest nation. They never had Mahatma Gandhi, Nehru, Patel and yet there is not even talk of separation. Even bodily removed Alaska with Eskimo ethnics do not demand secession. I am sure there are good and valid reasons for this to happen and the single most reason, atleast to my mind is a functioning democracy wherein the voice and interests of each group is more or less represented.
