Two decades before the American Revolution started, another somewhat successful separatist movement happened in 1755 in the form of the Corsican Republic, which declared independence from the Republic of Genoa. It lasted until 1769 when [[File:Cball-France.png]] France invaded and annexed it.
In 1860, South Carolina declared indepedence from the [[File:Cball-US.png]] United States. Several other states did the same in 1861. These separatists formed the [[File:Cball-CSA.png]] Confederate States of America. This large separatist attempt in North America was crushed a few years later in 1865.
From 1917-1922, in the aftermath of World War I, many separatist movements and revolutions happened across Europe. Some of these included [[File:Cball-Finland.png]] Finland (separated from [[File:Cball-Russia.png]] Russia), [[File:Cball-Yugoslavia-old.png]] Yugoslavia (separated from [[File:Cball-AustriaHungary.png]] Austria-Hungary), [[File:Cball-Bavaria.png]] Bavaria (separated from [[File:Cball-Germany.png]] Germany but rejoined), and many others. A lot of these had their roots in [[File:Ethnonat.png]] [[Ethnic Nationalism]], [[File:Cultural Nationalism.png]] [[Cultural Nationalism]], and [[File:Soc.png]] [[Socialism]].
In 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed. This was do to [[File:Nation.png]] [[Nationalism]] and Separatism. In the aftermath of the collapse, many new countries separated and became independent. But, separatists tried to separate from the new seperated countries, causing chaos in regions like [[File:Cball-Abkhazia.png]] Abkhazia, South Ossetia, [[File:Cball-Armenia.png]] Nagorno-Karabakh, and [[File:Cball-Chechnya.png]] Chechyna for the following years to come.
In 2014, Separatism caused civil war in [[File:Cball-Ukraine.png]] Ukraine. It started with the [[File:Cball-CrimeanTatar.png]] Republic of Crimea, but then spread to [[File:Cball-Novorossiya.png]] Novorossiya with the [[File:Donetsk republic.png]] Donetsk People's Republic and [[File:Cball-Lugansk.png]] Luhansk People's Republic.
In 2017 and 2018, the 'Unite the Right Rally' and 'Unite the Right Rally 2' occured. These were mainly by [[File:Whitesup.png]] [[White Nationalism|White Nationalists]], but also included [[File:Neoconfed.png]] Neo-Confederate separatists.
