You do realize that you can't seriosly expect an answer to such a broad question in a lemmy post, when whole books have been written about that topic and there is all but consesus on the specifics of the implementation, right?

First, the whole system is doomed to fail because a small group of "dissidents" could topple it, now The small group of dissidents becomes a whole imperialist nation. I think that's what you call "moving the goal posts". I will disengage if you keep showing not one gram of good will.

The militias are organized in a decentralized manner and will be accountable to the community (not a small group of superiors).

assuming my country turns anarchist

That's a cathegorical error right there. Don't knoweif you noticed it.

how will we defend against imperialist nations?

Again: quite a broad question. Allow me to point you to an essay with a proposal, if you're so inclined.

we cant just move a country over because someone else wanted what was in there.

That strategy is one of the strategies to be employed against small groups of tyrants in a nomadic society. Doesn't apply to all circumstances, but I never claimed it did.

im simply trying to understand how it would work in a broad way, therefore i ask broad questions.

from what the world is telling me right now, aggressors of all sizes and intentions will be the biggest threat to a project like this. i will give the linked material a read, but thats really the main point thats sticking for me about it.

is there definition on how society could be organized on a bigger scale, for bigger projects, like what countries are supposed to do today?

i mean, something like space programs need a huge network of different specialized and unspecialized personnel, equipment and materials to work. or the building of education systems, roads or healthcare across the country.

coordination with other nations for even bigger stuff also comes to mind.
