LONDON -- Britain is under 72 hours away from a once-in-a-lifetime vote on Scottish independence that could break up the 307-year-old United Kingdom, splitting apart one of America's key global allies. With polls suggesting that a Scottish split from the rest of Britain is a real possibility, lawmakers including Prime Minister David Cameron are making urgent appeals to save Britain its biggest constitutional upheaval since the Wars of Independence that led to the creation of the United States.

What will be voted on?

More than 4.2 million people in Scotland -- or 97 percent of the adult population -- have registered to vote on whether or not to remain part of the United Kingdom.

It already was, but this surely hastens it. I do expect them to join the EU and NATO after separation ... which I do expect will happen, either this vote or whenever it next rises to a ballot.

So how did the "vote" go?

And would the U.K. really insist on holding onto Scotland (which was indeed at one time centuries ago, an independent nation)given it's given up on holding onto so many of it's other holdings the world over?

The Scots voted to stay united. It is a great place to visit.
