    Thats the problem though. The Spanish constitution explicitly says that the country is indivisible. Therefore any independence referendums are against the constitution/illegal. And that’s the reason why the proponent of the referendum are persecuted.

    The next step should be to amend the constitution, but I’m not sure the rest of Spain would allow it

      In that case I see no problem if Catalonia just declares itself an occupied territory and liberates itself.
