Well it would of affected a lot of other countries. Australia being one of them, as our government is based around the connection to the UK. There was a slight issue that would mean that if Scotland became independent our government wouldn't actually exist. It would of been just a slight change to paper work to fix it but it still affected us. Then you have the fact that many flags around the world would become incorrect, as they are based on the Union Jack, which would be incorrect if Scotland became independent. Nothing major but it does mean something to people outside the UK.
