Catalonia should get independence from spain because they speak a different language. One reason is, The language was prohibited during the nearly 40-year dictatorship of Francisco Franco, who died in 1975. That changed when Spain transitioned to democracy in the late 1970s and Catalonia was given control of …show more content…
One reason is Catalonians have always been viewed as hard working, business minded and focused on succeeding, whereas the Spanish are often seen as exuberant, fun-loving and outgoing. This implies that Catalonians are willing to do more and are focused on succeeding in life. Aslo this tells me they never give up on anything. Another reason is Some of the national holidays are that of the Epifania del Señor or the Kings Day, on the 6th of January, the date in which most of the Spanish people exchange Christmas gifts; the 14th of January, the Holy Friday; May 1st, Workers Day; August 15th, Assunción de la Virgen; October 12th, Fiesta Nacional de España; November 1st, All Saints; December 6th, Constitution Day; and December 8th, Immaculate Conception Day.

This would be the begging of the Economic down fall for Catalonia but that is how europe works. Also it would mean that people would be very effect if this happens. However if these people are completely wrong because i believe that the history of Catalonia is so massively important just as important as Spain’s history, The Catalan authorities went through with the vote, leading to violence inside and around polling stations as Spanish security forces seized ballot boxes and attempted to close down the vote. They said that 2.26 million votes had been counted, with 90 per cent in favour of
