Has any nation regretted gaining it's independence?

It’s all hypothetical once the change happens anyway, once independence is gained then that becomes the reality and the alternative had a country stayed put is now just opinion on what might have happened or be different. There will always be people who regret it because they didn’t want it in the first place for whatever reason, but in the end the country in question has to just get on with it whichever route they choose.

Could apply the same to Brexit, it eventually will be what it will be, we won’t know what the alternative could have been.
