I say that mainly as an economics student but... I don't even get the nationalism view. Is being British not something of pride? One of the nations the shaped today's world as we know it.

Um...So what the UK has been a (somewhat) powerful country? The Scottish don't feel they are being represented by the government, and feel they can have a better economy by seceding. As an "economic student" I'm sure you'd recognize that Scotland will be easily able to rebound.
Why can't people be proud of being Scottish? Maybe because you were raised in England you wouldn't know?
