Can a state/territory/province secede from a country?

What is your opinion on this? And how do you feel it should be done if it is possible?

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

"One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. "Which road do I take?" she asked. "Where do you want to go?" was his response. "I don't know," Alice answered. "Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."

depends on the situation...

iraq would just get annexed by iran


That would be a great solution.  If Iran and the majority of Iraqi's are pleased with it, then why shouldn't they do it?

Sure, but there's not a lot of use in it these days unless the country's a shithole about to fall apart anyway. Although I wouldnt mind seeing California as its own nation :)

I'm glad Belgium isn't part of The Netherlands anymore. Gosh, imagine living in the same country as all those Belgians... I don't think I could handle that :-\

considering how much they contribute to the economy etc it'd be funny if it happened..

it'd probably fuck over the union though.. it could trigger a north/south divide

They don't really contribute much to the rest of the country at all.  California has some of the worst schools, the highest tax rates, the highest crime, the craziest laws, and generally wouldn't be missed by most of the population of the rest of the country.  I was fortunate enough to leave Cali when I was 7, way back in the 80's, and haven't looked back.

I'm sure Scotland and Wales would be hapy to oblige.

californians have alot more in common with us then they think
been rockin' longer than niggas twice my age
back in the days before Bob Marley was rockin' a fade
before Honest Abe signed the paper that freed slaves
before Neanderthals was drawing on walls in caves
I existed, in the garden of Eden gettin' lifted
stickin' dick to Eve before she was Adam's mistress
before Christ created Christmas, I been in lyrical fitness
