I'd say Brexit is a change from one set of rules to the other, but I would not call EU or GB free markets or capitalist states, as major parts of economies are heavily regulated, including agricultural and money sector (central banking). I dislike decentralisation as war analogy, it is anything but war.

Can you give examples in history of capitalist states?
I guess capitalist state is an oxymoron. Either you have capitalism or a state.

"What Is Capitalism? Capitalism is an economic system in which private individuals or businesses own capital goods. The production of goods and services is based on supply and demand in the general market—known as a market economy—rather than through central planning—known as a planned economy or command economy."
