List of short-lived states and dependencies

This article provides a comprehensive list of countries, dependencies, political and territorial entities, anarchist regions, autonomous areas and provisional governments that existed for five years or less. These short-lived entities emerged and disappeared under a variety of circumstances. In some cases, newly established states were overthrown by coups, while others were formed during failed revolutionary movements. Additionally, some entities were created as puppet states during wartime or existed as provisional governments. The diverse nature of these political formations reflects the complexity of state formation and dissolution in times of rapid political change.

Criteria for inclusion
• Have to have lasted five years or less. • All countries are dated since 1 CE. • Had de facto control over a territory or a significant portion of its territory. • Have had some sort of governance or attempted administration over their territory. ==Africa==

} Slovak Soviet Republic After the German surrender, the Saxony districts of Schwarzenberg, Stollberg, and Aue in the Ore Mountains were left unoccupied by Allies for unknown reasons. This led to anti-fascist groups forming local governments in those towns and villages, ending with the area's occupation by Soviet troops on June 24, 1945. There has been speculation as to why neither American nor Soviet troops immediately occupied the area. One explanation is the Soviets and Americans agreed to stop on the banks of the Mulde river. Since there are several rivers with this name, and the Schwarzenberg area lies between them, there may have been some misunderstanding over the agreed boundaries. Another possible explanation is that the Allies simply overlooked the area until the lack of occupation was noticed. Ukraine (de jure) ==Oceania==
