FWIW, this is what I expect from hierarchical groups.
As an aside, I might also expect to not be restricted to uniqueness, i.e.
a page should perhaps be allowed to belong to more than one group.
http://example.com/Kingdom/Sweden/Main
http://example.com/Democracy/Sweden/Main
could well both point to the same side.
To me, the hierarchy is among other things an aid to finding the
information. But there isn't necessary a single unique path.
