Main Article: Spanish Collapse Crisis

While in Catalonia the conflict was mainly concluded with the act of separation on 1st January 2016, in the Canaries are de facto independent, and Basque has retained its Status Quo, it is seen by many to be likely to restart, and the current state is simply a haitus.
