As for the Sudan...didn't they have a vote earlier inthe year to break of part of that country in an effort to remove some of the civil war reasons (turning the conflict into a regular war rather than a civil on.)

Darfur, which made headlines a few years ago, wasn't given independance, and is still seeking it, same goes for the Blue Nile area.

Another reason to leave California. Nuisance Abatement Teams are visiting people in the Antelope Valley (a desert area to the north east of Los Angeles) telling them that their structures and homes are bothering the neighbors when there aren't any neighbors in sight.
Spoiler for Nuisance Abatement Teams:

In what way? Unless they had much more recent help, that reactor is no more advanced than any of the 1970s built reactors.
If you mean by building more reactors to get off fossil fuels, I blame envormental nutjobs and nuclear alarmists for the halting of the majority of nuclear reactor construction in the United States since 1979.

It would be worse for Germany though. The German economic growth of recent year has been export driven and based on wage reduction schemes. A separate German currency would appreciate in comparison to the Euro, which would wipe out Germany's competativeness in relation to several of it's most important trading partners. So a German departure from the Euro is extremely unlikely. The negative tone of the Reuters article, without stating anything particuarly new or worrysome, is probably meant for UK consumption. The media over there love EU/Euro doom stories. |
