This is not always the case. Pakistan and India split with relatively little horror. The Czech Republic and Slovakia split with little trouble. Austria and Hungary split peacefully.
It only has to be horrible if one side or the other is unwilling to let go. If we had a velvet divorce, it would be annoying for most and existentially difficult for many, but we'd be ok.
Uhh...no...my god, that was a horror show. Muslims and Hindus killed each other in the streets as suddenly significant amounts of them were on the wrong side of the border.
And years later again in East Pakistan (Bangladesh).
Well that's why I said "relatively"
There wasn't a big-ass war the way there could have been. But I did downplay it more than I meant. I actually have several friends both Muslim and Hindu whose families were caught up in it.
How would we do money?
