Something like

'Asia' Div. IV.Japan, Div.IV.Iran etc. etc. They could have Asia Div.IV.Japan.1 ......2 etc. if we get a bit bigger....

Something like that might be codable...you'd have to ask Marin I guess. Having the idea out for them to select from is good though.

If you 'promote' then you go up and you are mixed leagues then. If you demote you go into your nation grouping.

That's pretty much what I'm suggesting...

As far as I know this is how a few Balkan nations are organized in Basketball real life.

and if your nation grouping is full (for whatever the reason) you kick someone down?

or if there is no low division you kick him out of the game?

Meh

Howl to the Moon, you won't regret it.

Yes, the promotion/demotion would be an issue, but not an unsolvable one.. They worked with lateral movement in Utopia too.

Says a guy who doesn't even PLAY in a small nation (SMH moment, right there). SAME AS IT IS NOW, DUDE. SAME AS IT WOULD BE IF THEY MERGED NATIONS. Seeing as you don't know, I'll explain: you play at the next spot available.

Why would that occur? For a start - it's in all likelihood impossible to do that within current BB structures.
There are a few ways you could structure this...

Let's say - for ease - only one super league in Asia - a conglomerate of: Sth Korea, Thailand, Japan, Vietnam (again reiterating: this is for example's sake).
You could...
- have direct relegation/promotion based on nation (lowest finisher relegates, regardless).
- make it simply on ranking, disregarding nation entirely, but drawing on those 4 to provide the highest world rankings in that region - they play in the Div 1.
- Have a relegation game during the playoffs, where lowest Div 1 team per nation plays against a team that would promote - winner goes/stays in Div 1.

Lots of ways that national identity could occur, without going the Utopian route.
