I see! I wondered if Finland would want independence in similar circumstances, and I think yes, and would make Morocco badly regret any kind of incursion, just as they did the Soviets. I see the same spirit in Catalonia, and Catalonia has half again over (7.5M) the population of Finland (~5M). So... yes? But if they were in the situation of the Canaries - 2.1M pop, geographically isolated - it might be wiser not to be independent.
