Just a crude map of separatist movements, made by johnct

For example, the whole point of Alaska's independence movement is for "Cascadia" not to happen. Cascadia itself isn't something you can argue for, because even the people that want it can't agree on whether if they would take existing state and province boundaries into account, or ecological boundaries. And if Alaska gets its own section, why not Vermont? Or Texas? At the same time, Europe is basically partitioned into linguistic areas, which yes, are relevant for some independence movements, but not for all. The whole point of The Troubles in Ireland was that Northern Ireland did NOT want to be unified with the Irish Republic. All those divisions of Serbia and Croatia? Most of them are outdated or their exact point is that they can't lead to independence. Bosnia's fragile federal government was established by the US, the UK, and the EU to stop the killing in 1995, and the people there would've done anything for peace after years of war. Serbia-Krajina doesn't exist anymore. Sandžak-Raška's independence movement pretty much died due to the war. Not to mention how both Bosnian republics actually share the Brčko District and this map has it in the wrong place. The whole point of Central Asia and South East Asia (and most of Africa) is that those divisions cannot be drawn on a map. You might as well section off all the US states and call it a day, because I'm sure they all have 3-5 people who claim the state should be "independent" or who think their accent gives them a real linguistic difference.
