Are you kidding?  Bitcoin can't even govern itself... or at least the developers/miners/whoever can't.  Nobody seems to agree on anything.  As an example, the scaling debate has turned into a complete sh-+show.  Coins like OMG are coming along and trying to solve the scaling issue long before it becomes a problem.  If Bitcoin can't scale, or does so at such a slow rate how could it govern the world?  No way.
