Actually, it is extremely rare for countries to have a referendum to choose independence. The most common route to independence is for countries to declare independence (or act independent), and for a "substantial" number of other countries to accept that call.
This is roughly what happened with, for example, New Zealand. The last vestige of direct British control didn't end until 1986.
