We should balkanize the iberian peninsula. Fuck, we should balkanize all of Europe.And America.
I feel like Catalonia fucked themselves over a bit. They were basically their own nation minus a few things, and now they're not going to get that at all.

They aren't ethnic Spanish so they should have the right to decide for their future.

They supposedly contribute 1/5 of Spain's economy while making 16 percent of the total population. They just wanna put it back in their fat wallets.

You don't autistically screech your way to independence and expect your neighbouring allies to just buck up and accept it.
