Why should a country get independant?

Because the Netherlands are wicked far away and most people, regardless of who's rule they come under, prefer to be able to have a local government and make their own laws.  (Not that the antilles don't have their own government, but they only have juristiction over so much)

To do establishing country for making a territory in which rulers can make their own rules so that nation of the country would be united and it's also help for making a nation's identification.

Since the country has grown in terms of population, technology, economy, military, etc. over the years, the bureaucracy has had to expand proportionally. However, it definitely could be tightened up among certain agencies which would most likely benefit the overally running of the nation.

As the Youngest of the real countries we sort of had our choice and became the first Succesful Republic Democracy with A capaitalist monetary system and a Social conscience.  We give more money to the world then ALL Other countries combined and have the greatest Allies on the earth.  Perfect nope but we are heading there I would suggest you join us.

I think we should.  People would then move to where their ideas are held important and are tolerated.  The states that ended up most successful would become models for the others.  Also decentralization would help remove the imperialistic tendencies of the federal government and cause less world wide hatred.

It has to do with Irish independence.  Those who want to be an independent country are usually Catholic.  Those who support the British monarchy are usually Protestant, following the Church of England.

Are you talking a system of government or which political party should be in power?  If the former, then it should return to the way it was when the government was founded - a republic.  If the latter, then I would say whatever direction an enlightened citizenry (unlike we are today) wants to take it.

better for them, better for us. \n\nIf the majority of the population want to be independent so be it. Now we can solve our own problems and stop blaming each other for everything that goes wrong.\n\nand like Matija Beckovic said "ceracemo se mi jos"

It tends to bolster national feeling and also the requirement of centralisation into a nation to deal with adversity. For example, national identity wasn't really a big deal in France until they had provincial revolts and foreign invasion. It was during its wars that the key elements of the nation formed, from the army, to a national economy, to a national set of laws, to a national mythology. You can pick many other examples where a similar process has happened. Similarly, you can look at countries which haven't had it really bad at any point in their history and where nationalism isn't such a big issue.

Look at both sides of each party, identify with which sides holds your beliefs and there you go. You can also be an independant which means you do not subscribe to a particular political party and just vote for whoever you identify yourself with more at the time of election.

It's hard to do so, I do believe that there are many responsible countries out there that are really trying, but not every country is a responsible one, some counties are ruled by selfish rulers who's only concern is power that they can acquire for them selves. I think it best if counties are ruled by governments that allow their citizens to have a voice, when we can get the world on board with that I think we might have a chance.

No no no no no! Every country should be it's own, and be seperate. Countries shouldn't be mixed together. If they are, people lose their convictions that set them apart in the first place. (i.e. "nutrality". btw, nutrality is the first step towards humanism and a Godless nation)\nIf cultures are swirled together, it  leaves a mellow, confused country that is fighting itself because of citizen unrest.

my preference is to vote independant...whatever is best for this country in the long run...not giving up long term things for short term gains

Nope. I think each government should try to reform their own country instead of poking their noses into the problems of their neighboring countries.

You need more than one family to establish a nation.  In the US it was families from England that colonized the east coast and when they felt  that together they could survive on their own, or could trade with other countries besides the Mother country then they wrote a Declaration of Independence to establish a new nation. It took awhile for other countries to recognize the US but since we had all sorts of resources they wanted (and they didn't like England) it didn't take too long.
