I don't think the UN would let you register that as the name of a country.

The UK realising it doesn't need to choose between the US and the EU, it should wholeheartedly get involved in the EU while maintaining close links with the US.

1. socialists? My mistake but the leaders they had are pretty abusive and tyrannical
2. again my mistake, but isn't the Balkans still a hot bed of immense tensions and ethnic violence and simply lumping them together create more problems?
3.1 The Protestants want nothing to do with the catholic south and simply don't want to be the underrepresented minority
3.2 when their descendants are all that's left it does, people are still people land is inanimate
3.3 demographics or useless point, if you fork over a population simply due to previous ownership is unethical

sure what the people did in the first place was unethical but don't punish their descendants for it, just because the americans slaughtered their way to the indian lands doesn't mean you take whats left of the native population give them the same power the Americans have and scrap the americans right. Sure its justice but its still unethical

A federated UK with counties grouped together under a local government, and bringing their ideas to a national parliament that can't medal with the affairs of local governments, much like Germany.

Been there, done that. At no point waiting sitting in the job center did I ever think this country would be better if it was governed by technocrats - your talking about changing the fundamental nature of the UK for the benefit of 6% of the population, and that's just pretending that unemployment is our main social problem.


You never once considered that the economy might be better if it were run in a consistent, well-planned manner by experts rather than by politicians with swings in policy after every election? You don't seem much of a big-picture thinker.

The whole point of independence is economic self-determination, so no, we won't take them.

The South should secede, so does São Paulo. We own 52% of Brazil's economy, yet we are robbed mercilessly by this so-called federal government and are extremely underepresented, although most of Brazil lives here. Also, migration from other parts of Brazil is a huge problem (and don't you even get me started on the Bolivians, Paraguayans, Africans, etc) to my state, and this is creating economic problems, so we should secede to set our own immigration rules.

If we were a real federation like the United States or Canada, I bet many of these problems would be, at very least, decreased, even Mexico is more of a federation than us. Sill, independence is the ultimate goal.

I don't sympathize with the neo-nazi minority, but it's fun that you brought them, because every separatist movement gets labeled as "nazi" or "racist", yet we only want self-determination. I'm pretty sure that if we could, somehow, educate the masses, they would undoubtedly sympathize with independence.

*sighs*

If you won't assume responsibility for your immediate descendants, we have to jump off the boat too.

Well, at least Rio de Janeiro if independent today would have the 23rd HDI of the whole world. -_-

It wouldn't be much of a war. A short invasion followed by a well resourced rebuild & rule. Compare what is now Pakistan under us to Obama's drones.

Pakistan has not gotten better. Sure, bad people were killed. But so were innocents. It wouldn't be such a short invasion. It'd be bloody. A foreign invasion would kill way more civilians and destroy much more infrastructure than not intervening at all.
