Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'secession'

The political act by which a region or group formally withdraws from a larger entity, typically a nation-state, to establish independence or join another sovereign body. Historically significant examples include the American South's 1861 secession that triggered the Civil War, and numerous post-colonial independence movements. In alternate history scenarios, secession events often serve as critical divergence points, creating timelines where different territorial configurations and power balances emerge from successful or failed separation attempts.
