Czechoslovakia

Several new states emerged in Europe, although small, like Czechoslovakia before the period of 1939. Some development that led to new states includes the dissolution of colonizing countries like Germany and Russia. It led to new and small states in the Middle East and Europe (Szanyi, 2019).

An example of a political development in Europe that led to the creation of a new state is the movement for independence that took place in Ireland. Ireland was part of the United Kingdom from 1801 to 1922. During the late 19th century and the early 20th century, Ireland saw a vigorous campaign advocating for Irish Home Rule. By 1918, militant republican separatism had gained strength.

War began between the Irish rebels and the British forces in 1919. Ireland was partitioned into Northern Ireland (belonging to the UK) and the Irish Free State, in 1920-1921. The Republic of Ireland, an independent nation, achieved full recognition in the years between 1931-1937.

Several new states emerged in Europe, although small, like Czechoslovakia before the period of 1939. Some development that led to new states includes the dissolution of colonizing countries like Germany and Russia. It led to new and small states in the Middle East and Europe (Szanyi, 2019). When these countries dissolved, they were in debt to each other. For instance, Germany had 132 billion marks to compensate for force destructions, and the French had to force their army to work for them as a form of payment. These caused more conflicts among European nations.
