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.

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.

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.
