قائمة الدول المعترف بها على نطاق محدود
بعض الكيانات الجيوسياسية التي تريد أن يُعترف بها بحكم القانون كدول سيادية يعوقها إفتقاد الإعتراف الدبلوماسي. في الماضن كيانات مشابهة كانت موجودة، وهي الآن كيانات تطالب بالاستقلال، عادة بحكم الأمر الواقع تسيطر على أراضيها، بإعتراف يتراوح بين جميع الدول الأخرى أو عدم إعتراف من أي دولة.
هناك نوعان من المذاهب التقليدية التي تقدم تفسيرات عندما يجب أن تكون الدولة السيادية بحكم القانون مُعترف بها كعضو في المجتمع الدولي. النظرية "التعريفية، تعرفها على أنها هي دولة قائمة بمقتضى القانون الدولي إذا ما توافرت فيه المعايير التالية: 1) أراضي محددة؛ 2) سكان دائمون؛ 3) حكومة و4) قدرة على الدخول في علاقات مع دول أخرى. حسب النظرية التعريفية، دولة الكيان هي استقلالها عن الإعتراف بها من قبل دول أخرى. على النقيض، "النظرية التأسيسية" تعرف الدول على أنها قائمة بمقتضى القانون الدولي إذا ما أعترف بها كدولة، من قبل دولة أخرى هي بالفعل عضوة في المجتمع الدولي.[1]
كيانات مختلفة أشارت إلى أحد أو كلا المرجعين لإضفاء الشرعية على مطالبهم بإعلان الدولة. وهما، على سبيل المثال، كيانات تتطابق مع المعايير التأسيسية (بحكم الأمر الواقع تسيطر كلياً أو جزئياً على الأراضي التي تطالب بها، حكومة وسكان دائمون)، لكن دولتهم لم يعترف بها من قبل دولة أو أكثر. عدم الاعتراف عادة ما يكون نتيجة لنزاعات مع بلدان أخرى تطالب بهذه الكيانات كمناطق داخل حدود أراضيها. في حالات أخرى، كيانان أو أكثر من المتعرف بهم جزئياً قد يطالبان بنفس الأراضي، وكل منهم بحكم الأمر الواقع تسيطر على جزء منها (كما في حالة تايوان والصين، وكوريا الشمالية والجنوبية). هذه الكيانات معترف بها من قبل عدد قليل من دول العالم وعادة ما يشيرون إلى المذهب التأسيسي لإضفاء الشرعية على مطالبهم.
في الكثير من الحالات، عدم الاعتراف الدولي يكون متأثراً بوجود قوة عسكرية أجنبية في الأراضي الإفتراضية، إعلان الكيان الاستقلال الذاتي، مما يخلق إشكالية وصف وضع البلد بحكم الأمر الواقع. قد للمجمتع الدولي الحكم على هذا الوجود العسكري بأنه تدخلي للغاية، مما يخفض من وضع هذا الكيان إلى دولة عميلة حيث تكون السيادة الفعلية للقوى الأجنبية. هناك حالات تاريخية في هذا السياق ظهرت في مانچوكو التي كانت دولة عميلة لليابان وسلوڤاكيا وكرواتيا قبل وأثناء الحرب العالمية الثانية. في قضية لوازيدو ضد تركيا عام 1996، المحكمة الأورپية لحقوق الإنسان حكمت على تركيا بسبب تدخلها في أراضي قبرص الشمالية.
هناك أيضاً كيانات لا تملك السيطرة على أي أراضي أو لا تتوافر فيها المعايير التأسيسية لإعلان دولة لكنها حصلت على إعتراف بوجودها بحكم القانون ككيانات سيادية من قبل دولة أخرى واحدة على الأقل. تاريخياً حدث هذا في حالة الكرسي الرسولي (1870–1929)، إستونيا، لاتڤيا ولتوانيا، وحالات أخرى.

مسوغات الضم
مسوغات الضم تعني الكيان السياسي الذي يجب عليه المطالبة بدولة، يفتقد الإعتراف من عضو واحد على الأقل في الأمم المتحدة، أو:
- إستيفاء شروط النظرية التأسيسية للدولة، أو
- أن يعترف به كدولة من قبل عضو واحد على الأقل في الأمم المتحدة
خلفية
بعض الدول لم تؤسس علاقات مع البلدان الجديدة بسرعة ومن ثم لم تعترف بهم بالرغم من عدم وجود نزاع وفي بعض الأحياء تكون العلاقات إيجابية. هذه البلدان متثناة من القائمة. بعض البلدان تكون مستوفية المعايير التأسيسية، وهي معترف بها من قبل أغلبية كبيرة من بلدان أخرى وهم أعضاء في الأمم المتحدة، لكنهم ضمن القائمة لوجود بلد أو أكثر لم يعترف بهم كدولة، بسبب نزاعات على أراضي أو نزاعات أخرى. هناك 193 عضو في الأمم المتحدة. الكرسي الرسولي ودولة فلسطين في وضع مراقب في الأمم المتحدة.[2]
بعض الدول تقيم علاقات غير سمية (رسمياً غير دبلوماسية) مع دول لم تعترف بها رسمياً. تايوان هي واحدة من هذه الدول، حيث تقيم علاقات غير رسمية مع الكثير من الدول الأخرى عن طريق مكاتبها الاقتصادية والثقافية، مما يسمح بوجود خدمات قنصلية اعتيادية. يمكن هذا تايوان من إقامة علاقات اقتصادية حتى مع الدول التي لم تعترف بها رسمياً. إجمالي 56 دولة، منهم ألمانيا،[3] إيطاليا،[4] الولايات المتحدة،[5] والمملكة المتحدة،[6] تحافظ على وجود نوع من المهمات الغير رسمية في كوسوڤو،[7] جمهورية ناگورنو قرةباخ،[8] قبرص الشمالية،[9] أبخازيا،[10] ترانسنيستريا،[10] الجمهورية الصحراوية،[11] أرض الصومال،[12] وفلسطين[13] كذلك تستضيف مهمات دبلوماسية غير رسمية، و/أو تحرص على وجود تمثيل خاص أو مهمات غير رسمية أخرى بالخارج.

تايوان | تايوان، تأسست عام 1912، معترف بها كحكومة دولة تايوان من قبل الكرسي الرسولي. جميع الدول الأعضاء في الأمم المتحدة لم يعترفو بها رسمياً كدولة؛ بعضهم يعتبرها أراضي مدارة بحكم القانون كجزء من الصين بينما يستخدم آخرين اللغة الدبلوماسية بحرص لتجنب الحديث عن موقفهم إذا ما كانوا يعتبرون تايوان جزء من الصين.[Note 1] Throughout the years, the ROC has adopted differing positions towards simultaneous recognition of the ROC and the PRC by other countries.[38] | الصين claims to be the successor of the former Republic of China and claims all of the territory under ROC jurisdiction as part of its sovereign territory. | Foreign relations, missions (of, to) Political status |

فلسطين | The Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) declared the State of Palestine in Algiers in 1988. At the time the PLO had no control over any part of the proclaimed territory.[45] It is recognised by 127 UN member states,[46] as well as the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic.[47] Today the PLO executes certain administrative tasks of self-government in most parts of the territories through the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) established in 1994 according to the Oslo Accords and the Israeli-Palestinian Interim Agreement.[48] Palestine participates in the United Nations as an observer state,[49] and has membership in the Arab League, the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and UNESCO.[50] | إسرائيل does not recognise the state of Palestine and controls the areas claimed by Palestine.[48] Since 1992, many Israeli governments have agreed to the creation of a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Since 2006, every Israeli government has agreed to the state's creation, with mutually agreed land swaps. | Foreign relations, missions (of, to) International recognition, Political status, Proposals for a Palestinian state |

الجمهورية العربية الصحراوية الديمقراطية | Both the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) and Morocco claim sovereignty over the territory of Western Sahara. The SADR, which declared its independence in 1976, has been recognised by 84 UN member states and is a member state of the African Union. 84 states, however, have since retracted or suspended recognition, pending the outcome of a referendum on self-determination.[71][72] Western Sahara is not recognised as part of Morocco by any states, but some states support the Moroccan autonomy plan. Moroccan "territorial integrity" is favoured by the Arab League. United Nations General Assembly Resolution 34/37 recognised the right of the Western Sahara people to self-determination and recognised also the Polisario Front as the representative of the Western Sahara people.[73] Western Sahara is listed on the United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories. | المغرب claims Western Sahara as part of its sovereign territory. | Foreign relations, missions (of, to) International recognition; Political status |

الصين | The People's Republic of China (PRC), proclaimed in 1949, is the more widely recognised of the two claimant governments of "China", the other being the Republic of China (ROC). The PRC does not accept diplomatic relations with states that recognise the ROC (21 UN members and the Holy See as of 2013). Most of these states do not officially recognise the PRC as a state, though some states have established relations with the ROC while stating they do not intend to stop recognising the PRC (Kiribati, Nauru).[81][82] Some states which currently recognise only the PRC have attempted simultaneous recognition and relations with the ROC and the PRC in the past (Liberia, Vanuatu).[83][84][85] According to United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758, the PRC is the only legitimate representative of China to the United Nations.[Note 1] | تايوان is considered the sole legal government over all of China under the Constitution of the Republic of China. | Foreign relations, missions (of, to) PRC's diplomatic relations dates of establishment |

كيانات مستبعدة
- The Sovereign Military Order of Malta is a non-state sovereign entity and is not included, as it claims neither statehood nor territory.[102][103][104][105][106][107] It has established full diplomatic relations with 104 sovereign states as a sovereign subject of international law [108] and participates in the United Nations as an observer entity. Although it is not recognised as a subject of international law by France,[109] SMOM maintains official, but not diplomatic, relations with France and also with five other states: Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg and Canada.[110] Five more states maintain neither and do not recognise its passports: Netherlands, Finland, Sweden, Iceland and Greece.[111]
- By definition, the list does not include uncontacted peoples who exercise varying degrees of de facto sovereignty over the areas under their control, but either live in societies that cannot be defined as states or whose status as such are too data deficient to be definitively known.
- Entities considered to be micronations are not included.[Note 2] Even though micronations generally claim to be sovereign and independent, it is often up to debate whether a micronation truly controls its claimed territory.[Note 3] For this reason, micronations are usually not considered of geopolitical relevance. For a list of micronations, see list of micronations.
- Those areas undergoing current civil wars and other situations with problems over government succession, regardless of temporary alignment with the inclusion criteria (by having control over permanently populated territory or by receiving recognition as state or legitimate government), where the conflict is still in its active phase, the situation is too rapidly changing and no relatively stable rump states have emerged yet.
- Those of the current irredentist movements and governments in exile that do not satisfy the inclusion criteria by simultaneously not having control over permanently populated territory and not having been recognised as state or legitimate government by any other state.

ملاحظات
- ^ أ ب Both the Republic of China and the People's Republic of China claim sovereignty over the whole of China, stating China is de jure a single sovereign entity encompassing both the area controlled by the PRC and the area controlled by the ROC. The position of individual states on this matter varies. Several states fully accept the PRC's position that there is only one China and that the PRC is the sole legitimate representative of China. Other states merely acknowledge this position, while recognising only the PRC as a state. Some states recognise only the ROC as a state, but have expressed an interest in recognition and relations with both the ROC and the PRC.[37]
- ^ Micronations are not included even if they are recognised by another micronation.
- ^ It is far from certain that micronations, which are generally of minuscule size, have sovereign control over their claimed territories, contrasted with the mere disregard and indifference toward micronations’ assertions by the states from which they allege to have seceded. By not deeming such declarations (and other acts of the micronation) important enough to react in any way, these states generally consider micronations to be private property and their claims as unofficial private announcements of individuals, who remain subject to the laws of the states in which their properties are located.

- ^ "La Orden de Malta y su Naturaleza Jurídica"English language translation "[T]he clear territorial separation of sovereign areas that exists between the Italian State and the State of Vatican City does not exist between the Order of Malta and the Italian State, but neither can it be said that the treatment given to the headquarters of the Order (Aventine, Via Condotti) is, simply, that reserved for the headquarters of diplomatic missions accredited to the Italian State. In fact, the headquarters of the Order have diplomatic extraterritoriality (authoritarian acts of any kind – executive, acts of inspection, judicial – cannot take place inside), but in addition, the Italian State recognizes the exercise, in the headquarters, of the prerogatives of sovereignty. This means that Italian sovereignty and Maltese sovereignty coexist without overlapping, because the Order exercises sovereign functions in a wider area than occurs in the diplomatic missions of the States for, although [those diplomatic missions] enjoy extraterritoriality, the guarantees deriving from the privilege of immunity are constrained to a purely administrative area; the Order, instead, makes use of extraterritoriality to meet the very acts of sovereign self-determination that are the same as the States (legislative, judicial, administrative, financial acts)."
