Maybe I can think of a better Olympics where members of a team come from several nationalities, like someone from USA competing for China. I think this had happened more than once, especially with football.

<br>Austria was the first country in Europe, which was left by Soviet forces in 1955.
<br>
<br>As a price for leaving, the Soviets forced us to promise ever-lasting-neutrality.
<br>
<br>During the coming decades of the 20th century we learned to love our neutrality.
<br>
<br>The circumstances changed, when we joined the European Union in the ninetees (utilizing the temporary weakness of the bear).

Not to say USA is strictly that way, we have tournaments and track-and-field meets. Perhaps the Olympics or Paralympics in total might be the best metaphor. Collaboration is a bit like symbiosis.

Here in USA, we don’t really have an opportunity for multi-way thinking, and I like to encourage it. It’s much better than pros and cons. Or us vs them, or me against the world, etc.

As an addendum, I have recently found cooperative (or more officially “coalition”) game theory—in addition to the previously mentioned discrete, continuous and differential (competitive) game theory. This was not previously mentioned in <a href="https://coderextreme.net/TurnTaking.html" target="_blank">https://coderextreme.net/TurnTaking.html</a>, which involved parallel and sequential turn taking, and not specifically anything about teams. Coalition game theory is about forming teams or sides (think projects or programs at work).

It’s important to think about who is on a team. Individuals, family, church, consortium, county, state, nation , alliance or world. Often people become stuck in a religious or nationalistic mindset, if not egotistical. There’s a saying “Think Globally, Act Locally” (where Act might mean contribute or collaborate). Hence the name of “The Society.” As the internet and technology expands our circle, we have opportunities to collaborate with others.
