Nicola Sturgeon says no country in history has been "better prepared to become independent" than Scotland.
The First Minister's comment comes as the Scottish Government is due to publish a paper on its plans for the economy and currency of an independent Scotland on Monday.
It is the third release in the Building a New Scotland series, which aims to set out a refreshed prospectus for Scottish independence. It is expected to provide detail on moving toward a "fairer, greener independent economy to help people live happy, healthy, fulfilling lives".
