Well, it was just a generalisation. No power is too big to fall. Especially if the power in question also believes they are too big to fall.

No it sadly wont happen. America has not had enough pressure, and does not already have great variations among states.

We wouldn't survive seperated. The fact is we would clamour to reunify.

I don't think you understand what countries are.

Self-determination is an inherent right of any population, irrespective of whether they have political autonomy. No region of Greece has suggested secession from Greece is a viable alternative just because Greece has a lot of debt, because, this might be hard for you to understand, but if you secede, you take a percentage of the national debt that is equal to your percentage of the population of the country you are seceding from.

And those territories actually aren't constitutionally prohibited from seceding, unlike US states.
Kosovo is Morrowind. N'wah.
Impeach Dagoth Ur, legalise Daedra worship, the Empire is theft. Nerevarine 3E 427.

Pros: Dunmeri independence, abolition of the Empire, the Daedra, Morag Tong, House Redoran, Ashlander interests, abolitionism, Dissident Priests, canonisation of St. Jiub the Cliff Racer Slayer.
Cons: Imperials, the Empire, the False Tribunal, Dagoth Ur, House Hlaalu, Imperials, the Eight Divines, "Talos", "Nords", Imperial unionism, Imperials.

I am a: Social Democrat | Bright green | Republican | Intersectional feminist | Civic nationalist | Multiculturalist

Ah, NSG. Where the regulars who complain about spam and us not moving fast enough to take down the threads they want us to, will spam the fuck out of the things they'd rather we ignore, so they can get in their jollies. Gotta love it. -_-
