Don't know about Basque Country, but Catalonia wants to keep on going with the independence regardless of the referendum.

Surely any vote to split would be the final nail in the Spanish economy.  It would be catastrophic wouldnt it?

I think Spain would be able to "carry on", but extreme adjustments would be needed, which would eventually lead to the ship sinking even faster. What I'm curious about is if Catalonia could hold up with themselves only.
