I agree with the OP, if a region wants to be a country it should be able to, given it has popular backing from the people.
But I guess people are against it because of traditional values, as it could split a country up. For example, If Catalonia's referendum on independence in 2014 proves that they want to be independent then other regions will likely follow. I don't see it as a bad thing, but others probably do.
