Should Spain take this to heart and integrate with Catalan?

  Most of the other diverse parts of Spain aren't clamoring for independence from the collective, perhaps Catalan can follow their example.

    You don't even know what you're talking about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basque_conflict https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basque_conflict "The Basque conflict, also known as the Spain–ETA conflict, was an armed and political conflict from 1959 to 2011 between Spain and the Basque National Liberation Movement, a group of social and political Basque organizations which sought independence from Spain and France. The movement was built around the separatist organization ETA[4][5] which had launched a campaign of attacks against Spanish administrations since 1959. ETA has been proscribed as a terrorist organization by the Spanish, British,[6] French[7] and American[8] authorities at different moments. The conflict took place mostly on Spanish soil, although to a smaller degree it was also present in France, which was primarily used as a safe haven by ETA members. It was the longest running violent conflict in modern Western Europe.[9] It has been sometimes referred to as "Europe's longest war".[10]" Catalunya is trying to find a peaceful, democratic path to resolving the issues in their region.
