New Jersey is a state. I do not think that they have the wherewithal to attempt such. Scotland is a country, but I don't think their occupiers would allow them to try. Granted, it is an awkward term, and I too wish there was a better one. >Does your question imply that none of these countries are capable of orchestrating this and only nation-states can do it? It's not clear to me that Russia can summon the ambition. But point conceded.
