I'd be lying if I said I'd looked into this at all but I actually am in favour of small, self-governed regions (which are then part of a larger country) as a general rule. I fully believe that doing so does give more of a voice to each individual citizen.
I personally think that the best thing for England, for example, would be to devolve regions and allow each to govern the day-to-day issues themselves with only the biggest national-and-international scale issues left to Westminster. So for example... you'd have a devolved City of London, a devolved Yorkshire, Lancashire, etc etc. |

Would all the crappy parts of London, like the east and south, be included in the city state?

Wouldn't that be stupid? I mean the parts people want to supposedly break away from is the LA part or whatever and won't that generate the most money for the state?

It's going to be interesting to see how they handle resource mgmt in a state like CA if they split it up. Given the area is incredibly drought prone and natural disasters are regular.
There are some states in the US that I could see be worth merging in order to pool their resources. |
