> how weird it is that UNESCO heritage lists are per country.
Most things on the list are geographic (in some sense) so for those it kind of makes sense that they are country based. There are some that spans multiple countries, the largest of which that I’m aware of is Struve Geodetic Arc stretching from the Arctic to the Black Sea.
But I agree that some cultural evolutions are quite far removed from the physical space in which they happened.
