If so they should rename them to "The Islands Argentina Will Never Get."

I mean, we fought a war even though they are on the other side of the world to keep them. Not sure why we would suddenly give them up.

Heck, the most recent vote they had everyone but one voted to stay as well.

for some reason it seems like only Americans are concerned with breaking away from the English. Everyone else is always content to linger in their grasp. Still annoyed by the Scottish vote a couple years ago.

Do you not know of the terrorist group called the IRA or something? The troubles, with Ireland? >.>

Or the MANY other places that wanted out from British rule?

Never. Scotland is a part of the United Kingdom and despite what Nasty Nicola thinks it always will be.

..What? They are very much officially a terrorist group in Britain, given they set bombs off around the country and killed innocent people with nothing to do with the troubles. Pretty sure America lists them as one now as well (but Im not certain)

That said. The Fawklands war may have had more to do with saving Thatchers position in government, given how unliked she was at the time. And a party rebellion looming. The war very likely saved her entirely and was almost certainly what drove her to see it, rather than wanting to save a tiny island tbh.

the only reason I live in America and not Scotland is because my ancestor didn't want to be a priest and the only way to avoid it was to run away from home to America. otherwise I'd be posting from Scotland right now, and I would have voted for independence

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falkland_Islands

The entire group, 2 main Islands + 776 little islands surrounding it.

it would be a wonderful place to setup a small / medium sized city.

They still have some overseas territories. The French do as well, along with a few other countries. Most are pretty small, but some like Gibraltar for the Brits and French Guiana for the French are somewhat significant.
