I hope that eventually there won't be any countries, and the world will be united - the idea of the UK still existing in a thousand year's time is depressing, it'd indicate a lack of progress by humanity imho.
If nothing else, continental drift will jumble the map and make it unrecognisable.
Countries as geological entities are fleeting; and while patriotism has its appeal, it also seems a bit short-sighted to me.
