In practical effect, it's no different from what the apartheid government in South Africa did beginning in 1977 when it created 'independent homelands' in areas that were predominantly populated by African tribes. These 'homelands' - Bophuthatswana and Ciskei, for example - were only created to further advance the government's apartheid agenda. Guttermouth's Option 2, is really what should take place.
It's why Ian Smith was praised as a visionary and patriot within five years of Zimbabwean independence and ZANU/Mugabe rule. Rhodesia was what it was but it was also the 'breadbasket of Africa' from the time of its 1965 UDI and even after the creation of Zimbabwe. Smith, et al., warned the world that Mugabe was a Marxist who would destroy the country which is what happened. The same thing is occurring in South Africa.
There’s no difference between peoples or cultures at all. It’s just that whites live on magical dirt. And this magical dirt creates crime free neighborhoods, innovation, great farmland, and periods of progress and political peace. The problem is, is that whites are the only ones who know where the magical dirt is, and they hoard it for themselves, and if the whites could be removed, then others could also have this magical dirt for themselves.
But then they always get this magical dirt, and discover the hard way, that magical dirt is a fairy tale, and it takes great sacrifice to create magic dirt, and the whole thing collapses under the weight of the lie. But in response, they’re lied to even more, they cling to their magic dirt theory. “Oooh the whites stole the magic dirt when they left Rhodesia. If we could all move to London, that’s the homeland for the magic dirt.” Then London fails.

Spent time in South Africa. The most common phrase I was told, y everyone I met, white, non white, Indian, black… they all said the same thing.
Me- “I love your country, it’s so beautiful.”
Them- “It was better when the whites ran it.”

Exactly.
It’s the magical dirt theory.
