Separatism: Difference between revisions

'''Separatism''', also commonly known as '''Secessionism''' and '''Souverainism''', is a form of [[File:Nation.png]] [[Nationalism]] that seeks to establish a nation, country, sovereign state, or government that is separate from a already existing nation and exists to serve as the nation, country, government or sovereign state of a specific group. It is an incredibly broad ideology that believes that minority groups in a society are at risk of losing identity. Groups such as linguistic, ethnic, cultural, religious, tribal, racial, ethnolinguistic, gender, and even political groups concentrated in an area that is controlled by an 'oppressive' nation, whose governance or majority populace is not belonging to the minority group of the area, should be separated, the land containing the minority should be able to have their own nation. This is the principle of self-determination that Separatism vehemently supports.
