] Date Posted: 17:41:56 01/06/05 Thu In reply to: Ed Harris (London) 's message, "When I say that..." on 16:42:40 01/06/05 Thu Do you think that the Scottish and Welsh football and rugby teams etc should be abolished by law? When is a nation not a nation? The Soviet Union wasn't one. The Spanish aren't one. You could make good cases the same way for India, and certainly the west of "China" [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |

Date Posted: 18:18:30 01/06/05 Thu Spain IS a nation, it just happens to include people within its borders who disagree. Tibet and Sianking are ntaions that happened to be ruledby another (same with basque and other minor palces in Spain), this does not stop China from being a nation, you could say though that itisnt a nation-state. Oh and BTW I would like to see the Welsh and Scottish sports teams abolished. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 18:21:37 01/06/05 Thu The Catalans and Basques are nations... "Oh and BTW I would like to see the Welsh and Scottish sports teams abolished." I'd like to see you try. Then you'd see democracy in action. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 18:26:30 01/06/05 Thu I dont dney Basques and Catalans are ANtions, but thats no reason to deny Spain its nationhood. Like China you could say it isnt a nation-state. And yes a refferendum to megre the sports temas would fail miserably. But its something to consider for the future. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |
