Countries never gain independence through violent action, in every case in history a revolution makes a country worse off. USA is a prime example if you read the history. Indeed, no revolution was necessary at all: Canada gained its independence without one.
Scotland is down to the wire on a pro-independence referendum, but the bookies give a "no" 4-1 odds. the bookies usually have it right. Women want British oppression 55 - 45, men want freedom 52 - 48.
The bankers came out and claimed depression ahead if Scotland goes independent. What is more likely is wealth ahead as Scotland goes the way of Hong Kong, Monaco, Switzerland, Ireland, Singapore, Andorra and dozens of other prox 5 million citizen countries that are richer after escaping their oppressors. As to the Royal Bank of Scotland, which royal? If Windsor, then of course they would say that. The only bank that matters is Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, a Scottish bank that has always been based in Scotland. They know better.
The big challenge is if Scotland decides it wants ot be an even more dire welfare state, but that is tough with only five million. Plus, if they want to join the EU, which would be going from the frying pan to the fire.
But almost all of the above, small countries, wealthy and independent, got there by an accident in history. Cameron approved of the vote because he believed no way it would pass. So if it passes, it is an accident. May God grant Scotland its independence.
