This is a list of active separatist movements in Asia. Separatism can include autonomism and secessionism,[1] despite the fact that independence is the primary goal of many separatist movements. Many separatist movements arise as a result of religious, racial, social, and cultural disparities between certain peoples and the majority or ruling class in a country. What constitutes an autonomist or secessionist movement is often debatable; entries on this list must be recognized by credible sources as involved, separatist, and composed of citizens of the country from which independence is sought.
Under each region listed is one or more of the following:
- De facto/proposed state and/or autonomous territory: a proposed term for a secessionist or anticipated sovereign state, or an area seeking greater autonomy.
- Organizations that help: advocacy, cultural, ethnic, ethno-religious, political, regional, and/or religious group(s) that play a significant role in the movement's separatism.
- Government-in-exile: a government that is located outside of the country under consideration, with or without power.
- Recognized individuals who hold key roles within the separatist movement or organization(s)
Militant organization(s) are also classified for movements that establish a de facto state or occupy areas of territory are listed as well.
