Those referendums were about constituting the regions as Autonomous Communities (what in USA is an “state”), or about updating their “estatuto de autonomía” (declaration of state). They were not about independence from Spain.

Actually, Spain forbids independence clearly in its Constitution, as it is illegal in many other countries, like the USA for example.

First, comparing the autonomous communities to states is ludicrous. The legal standing is very different.

> updating their “estatuto de autonomía”

This is technically part of the Spanish constitution, not that it matters because they're never uphold.

Doesn't seem to be related to the discussion, does it?

How is that related to the discussion? Are we going to “cancel” the Constitution?
