Based on what? Which Europe? Have you ever been to Greece or Serbia? It is not about geography it is about culture.

Naučio sam čak ovaj jezik! Anyway, I don't understand this part. I marked this as "culture" and am asking about this cultural difference - and you are... Telling me it's not about geography?

Texas has the unique legal ability to either fracture into 5 states or claim independence as part of its unification treaty with the US, so it's a bad example. But speaking to your actual point, you can't imagine that someone would ever support a secessionist minority? I guess that's the very gulf in understanding I'm trying to bridge - because I don't understand why you would even care about a secessionist minority. (I also know plenty of Spaniards in the South who said they would have no problem with Catalonia succeeding if it won the election.) I certainly know many Canadians who want Quebec to leave Canada too. So I'd like to understand your point of view more deeply. :)
