Various Independent Days from UK

[Constantine]

I was talking to a friend on another site from the Orkneys, apparently they are in talks with Norway to join them, which means leaving the UK.

Anyone knows the distribution of various national independence days, and the mean point on the calendar year in which a common international independence day from the UK could be established?

Irish shouldn't take precedence or a back seat to the US. Someday the Scottish will have a date too, and the Northern Irish and even the Welsh. We should have our own unique holidays, but also a international FU Day common between us all.

You know.... gave it some thought. Walking around saying it is FU Day might confuse people into thinking it has to be about saying FU to everyone, without knowing it is about the emancipation of the human spirit from the UK.

So FU UK Day is probably a better idea. Or FUK Day for short. The United Nations can debate which.

I think half the world has independence days from the UK. All except England, that is, which has always been independent. Unless you count the day in AD 410 when the Romans relinquished control, but we don't know the exact date of that.

Gwynedd resisted the Anglo's the longest, repelled the Irish raiders and maintained the most Roman Civitas till near the Norman invasion. They likely saw themselves as free.

Until the 13th century.

Perhaps the 21st century will change things.

There's not a very strong independence movement in Wales.

I wonder if England will ever declare independence from the UK.

There are some who think it should.
