Britain and Scotland have been united since 1707 and now are deciding if Scotland should be it's own country.
According to the New York Times, the voting results that come out Friday morning are predicted to be down the middle.
This debate has caused a huge frenzy in Scotland. People have gathered in huge crowds in Glasgow to get people in favor of the "yes" vote. Catalonia activists have arranged candles in the shapes of the Catalan flag and Scottish flag in Edinburgh. "
Almost 4.3 million people - 97 percent of the electorate - have registered to vote, including 16- and 17-year-olds," according to the New York Times.
The English have no formal say unless they have Scottish residence.
With movies like Braveheart and the new Starz show Outlander, make me feel like this call for independence is long over due. Both of these productions portray the Scottish's desperate desire for independence.
People in Scotland who are against the separation from Britain have signs that say "It's not worth the risk."
Some citizens hope that if England and Scotland become separate countries that they will still get along.
What do you think?

The results are in and Scotland is not separating! Hopefully the results are accurate to what the people in Scotland really want.
