As I understand it, Amazon is already internally organized in relatively independent groups, each focusing on a particular market. If so, one possibility would be to:

a) break Amazon into many independent companies based on these already-established groups and

b) bar forever (or for some time) these groups from merging with each other.

The initial conditions (terms of the break-up: e.g., how much cash each entity would get) would determine whether, when cast out onto the street, each might survive.
