I asked this question in various places inon the Web. I haven't received a clear answer.
The USA separated from the UK because the people felt that they arewere not British, and they weren't.
Weren't Canadians/Australians/New Zealanders also descended from the British?
Or was it that UK was unable to administer them for financial reasons? I will not accept this as an answer. In this case why was the UK able to hold ontoon to to Scotland, England, Northern Ireland and Wales?
Why are Canada/Australia/New Zealand not administered from the UK?
