Parts of states do not simply arrange independence referendums without approval from the central government. This would be “cracked down” in every single country on earth. It may well be that Catalonia deserve independence but it’s not exactly surprising or authoritarian of a central government to stop such attempts. Scotland doesn’t arrange an IndyRef without getting a nod from London.

But how could they have proceed legaly, when the central government made it clear, they never respect their right of self determination?

By trying to move that opinion. It might take three or ten generations but it’s hard to see an independence movement go faster without violence.
