Answer:

-Some forces that may lead to supranationalism include economies of scale, trade agreements, military alliances, and transnational environmental challenges.

-Supranationalism is expressed in the creation of multinational organizations.

-Some forces that may lead to devolution of states include physical geography, ethnic separatism, terrorism, economic and social problems, and irredentism.

-Devolution is expressed in the fragmentation of states into autonomous regions (e.g., Nunavut, Native American Reservations), subnational political-territorial units (e.g., Spain, Belgium, Canada), or Balkanization (e.g., former Yugoslavia, the Caucasus).

-Advances in communication technology have facilitated devolution, supranationalism, and democratization.
