It is only home if they feel this way, and different people may have different feelings and different viewpoints about it, leading to different political stances. Even the USA had their own secession and civil war in recent history, and nothing garantees it won't happen again.

All the more considering how differently the Republic's population has evolved both culturally and even biologically over the centuries. Even the word "human" has become a conventional term that lost most of its meaning before the extreme diversity it now encompasses.

I understand your viewpoint and its validity, I'm saying not everyone may share it.
