The "List of Stateless Ethnic Groups" link shouldn't link toList of active autonomist and secessionist movements. The Roma are stateless, but they aren't a secessionist group.

There is a large number of Stateless Nations that I propose can be added based on these two books, both of which have many sources within them to back up each entry.

(https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=OLKKVXgEpkoC&lpg=PP1&dq=stateless%20nations&pg=PR5#v=onepage&q=stateless%20nations&f=false)and(https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=NwvoM-ZFoAgC&pg=PA1&dq=abazin+nation&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiWh4DQzdvcAhWwx4UKHWP-B-EQ6AEIKTAA#v=onepage&q=abazin%20nation&f=false)

These are the first five additions I would propose. If those two sources are not enough then I can send more to back up these peoples being called 'Stateless nations'.

Abkhazians

Abazins

Gagauz people

Kalmyks

Cantabrian people

In page of Wikipedia there weren’t a list about Stateless nations, Why?

What problem cite Scottish people and Scotland as Stateless nation, or the Karen people, or Catalonia, etc….

Thanks for bringing this up. A list was there but someone has deleted it. I've now brought it back. —kashmīrī ^TALK00:39, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
