- paulgb 3y agoYep, that's a fair point. I do think that the more popular ccTLDs are probably slightly safer than less popular ones all else being equal because there is more riding on not “killing the golden goose”, but stability of the country (or territory) is also a factor.
- Symbiote 3y agoThe same applies to .UK, should Scottish independence succeed. If anything, that seems more likely than the UK giving up control of Diego Garcia.
- messe 3y ago> The same applies to .UK, should Scottish independence succeed Northern Ireland exists and is still unfortunately a part of the UK. The UK would still be the United Kingdom of X and Northern Ireland even if Scotland leaves.
- PontifexMinimus 3y agoEven if NI leaves, it'd be the United Kingdom of England and Wales. If Wales leaves, the United Kingdom of England?
- Symbiote 3y agoNo, the kingdoms of England, Scotland and Ireland (parts) are united. Wales was conquered in 1284 - the Kingdom of England includes Wales.
