    If England was not an island, these people would live in France and work in England. From what the article states, the only reason why they left France was for business and careers. Which is understanble: What else would they leave France for England for ?

          No - it has two land bridges to Civilisation. One to the north, and one to the west.

              Here's me thinking that separation for Scotland was just another name for Independence and all along it's about turning us into an Island!

                I'm still glad as hell I wasn't born and/or raised in France. For starters, I don't speak French.

                            Thats what countries did, had had done for hundreds of years (and a lot still would given half a chance) We were just very good at it, had we not it would have been France or Germany or Russia or Holland or Italy or Spain or Mongolia etc etc and before you say that doesnt make it right, it also doesnt mean that by the standards of the time that is was wrong

                              The First World War was largely started to protect the income our aristocracy received from the colonies.

                                so the fact that Germany wanted to create European superpower was nothing to do with it?

                                  They say Chicago is the second largest Polish city in the world, but I think that's folklore.
