I heard Luxingburgh has no government, is that true?
Luxembourg has a Parliamentary democracy and Constitutional grand duchy government.
Does Luxembourg really govern itself?
"Technically, it's a part of Europe. But in reality, they govern themselves." Oh Americans.. edit: "Luxembourg's a constitutional monarchy, a sovereign state established after the Treaty of Vienna." = same as many other European countries. "Technically, it's a part of Europe. But in reality, they govern themselves." = same as all other European countries. All on the European continent, all sovereign states. Also, weird sentence.. Imagine me stating "The USA is a part of North America. But in reality, they govern themselves". Well, duh? Definitely weird.
Does Luexenburg govern themselves?
Luxemburg has been an independent country for over 100 years now. It is a constitutional monarchy, Henri I is the Grand Duke.
Could somebody please explain to me the Brexit? As in shortly causes etc?
Yes, it appears to be shorthand for the British Exit from the EU. This explains it better than I could: More than a thousand Britons working in Brussels, Luxembourg and Strasbourg face an uncertain future due to British Prime Minister David Cameron's decision to flirt with withdrawal from the European Union. Civil servants employed by the EU institutions must as a rule be citizens of one of the bloc's member states, meaning Britons who have dedicated their careers to the European cause could be left in the lurch. The rule applies not only to the European Commission but also to the European Parliament, the Council of Ministers and the European Court of Justice. At least 1,400 Britons are directly employed by the EU, with many more potentially affected by a British exit or 'Brexit'. No member state has ever left the 27-member bloc, so there is no precedent regarding the treatment of remaining staff. The commission recruited Norwegians in the early 1990s in the expectation that Norway would join the EU. When the country subsequently voted no in a referendum, these officials left the institution. Commission insiders point out, however, that they were never fully integrated into the EU system unlike the British, many of whom have worked in Brussels since the 1970s. The commission's main trade union has attempted in recent weeks to solicit clarification on the fallout of a possible British withdrawal. "I have been talking to British members about Brexit and have tried to contact senior British officials in the commission including Robert Madelin's office," said Pierre-Philippe Bacri, president of the European Civil Service Federation. Madelin is director general of one of the commission ministries. "People are calling me about this but it would seem that there is no British group reflecting on the fate of the British staff here. I have tried to find one," Bacri told PublicServiceEurope.com. "We are concerned about this. We are not yet dramatically concerned, but we will be if Brexit becomes a real possibility".

What makes America great?
Is it that we have freedom of the press, no, they have that in a lot of countries, e.g., Ireland, Australia, etc. Is it that we have the strongest military in the world? Well, 30 years ago the Soviet Union had the second strongest army in the world, but life was a lot better in New Zealand which had only a fraction of the power of the USSR. Is it because we're allowed to bear arms? No, plenty of countries allow that as they do not all follow the lead of Britain. Is it because we protect the world? If by protecting, you mean..... Is it because we have the highest GDP in the world? But we don't have the highest per-capita income in the world. Is it because so many people move to America? Well, we can take in more immigrants than Ireland, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, that's why they don't have the same volume of immigrants, plus those countries were not originally set up to be multi-ethnic melting pots. Is it because we put a man on the Moon? Well, that's an achievement, but wouldn't you rather be successful in a non-space exploratory nation than down and out or incarcerated for a drugs' offence in the USA? Is it because we have freedom? Unlike, uh, The Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Ireland, Canada, Switzerland, Austria, Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, Belgium, Iceland, Japan......
