People don't fight over only resources. They can also fight over ideals, rights and punishments to those who go against rights.

I think you're confusing the terms "utopia" (perfect society) and "post-scarcity" (limitless resources). Post-scarcity does not mean peacefulness.

You don't need to be greedy to be carry out goals. Power doesn't neccessarily corrupt.

Also, it would not be incredibly boring. My civilisation the Estin (although mostly unwritten due to procrastination) is based on the effects of a post-scarc society. They have splintered into many factions and the stories that can come from them are as limitless as any other possibility.

Thank you for explaining that sentence, but I find that untrue as the people who would choose to make their own cities, while they could just as much as anybody could today (hence Sealand among other micronations) still need laws and ways to access the resources along with the people in their ideals and what-not. Making nations wouldn't be any different to today in which people try to do it.
