Never! However much they may be the downtrodden masses, and however much they may be insulted by people who clearly do not know what goes on, they are much too Kemrese to brook a serious thought towards independence. Even Kemr's perceived capitulation to the invading Saxon in 1805 didn't cause a secession. Close, but it didn't happen. And anyway, they are practical enough to know that they can't make it without Kemr. I could see it happening ìf Britanny achieved independence from France. But only barely, and anyway, there are so many Brithenig speakers in the Province now, and more people are looking towards becomming more like the rest of the country, that they would not let it happen. Jorg does not know this, but he will get his secret wish, in time.

Yeah. They just have kings or emperors for heads of state!
