Really? Well, how long have the U.S. and Mexico been two countries?
How long were East Germany and West Germany two countries?
What is your time limit on when two countries made from one are legitimately two countries not subject to reunification? 50 years? A hundred? Two?
What makes your chosen time limit unarbitrary?
Or is the southern half of the United States simply rightfully "ours" because it's ours, and East Germany was never rightfully the East Germans' because it was "theirs?"
