Why not abolish stealing, lying, and murder? You simply think you can rewrite the rules of human interplay and conflict... In medieval European towns, there have been deadly violence rates of 40-80/10'000 (inhabitants, that is). Chicago is at 6/10'000 today, average European towns at 1-2/10'000. I'd call it a civilizatory effect. Wrt. world government: If we first accept the (economic) necessity of such a "government" to address some of the big challenges and conflicts of interest of this world, the implementation would be much easier. economic: without military conflicts. Those are incredibly and increasingly costly.
