since that time. For example: Iran is given the date 2600 BC, the time of the establishment of the Elamite kingdom in that area, even though the Elamites are a different nation from the Persians living there now (completely different language). India is given the date 2500 BC - the date of the Indus Valley Civilization, though no one knows if it had any cultural or genetic connection to modern-day Indians, and though it had lost its sovereignty several times in the interim period. Most recently to the British for 100 years. Japan got the date 660 BC although is mostly considered legendary. And there are more examples like this in the list. By the same logic, the "date of acquisition of sovereignty" of Israel should be set at the establishment of the first Jewish kingdoms in the holy land which was about 930 BC (according to latest estimates). This kingdoms were called Israel and Judea. Their historicity is undisputed. And their connection to modern Israel is obvious as well - same languages, same name, same religion, genetic descent etc.
1255:
were these states sovereign under any definition in those dates?; did their alleged sovereignty continue uninterrupted from those dates till now?; is there even a continuation of any national identity in those cases from then till now?; Are those dates accepted by historians or considered legendary? In this list of states we can find for example the following states: Algeria, Ethiopia, Morocco, Afghanistan, Armenia, China, India, Iran, Iraq, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, Mongolia, Albania, Belarus, Bulgaria, Croatia, Germany, Hungary, Norway, Poland, Serbia, Ukraine, Georgia, and maybe some others I missed.

were equivalent to the latter, and it is not -- particularly if a failed revolution is involved. I think, without being able to cite specifics, that this article has a number of problems relating unclear definition of terms as used here. I do not think it is clear, for purposes of this article, what a "sovereign state" is and how/when, for purposes of this article, it is considered to have been "formed". I haven't thought any of that out well enough to suggest improvements.
650: 535: 450: 1420:
before that, and that is that the article contains a second set of tables that have a column titled "Historical notes", which summarizes the entire history and changes in sovereignty of each land. This makes the columns of ""acquisition of sovereignty" and "Dates of acquisition of sovereignty" (in the first set of tables) completely redundant and superfluous as well as contentious. So I'll delete it later today.

to pre-history. This is a pointless and selective approach when the current forms of government bare essentially no resemblance to those ancient states. If we are to seriously consider these dates/claims we also need to seriously consider all dates of first settlement by humans as being traceable to the modern state which is not of course not at all the purpose of this article.
574: 728: 1482:- Second, it's a contentious/propaganda tool (is modern Cambodia closely tied to the Khmer empire listed? Is an ancient Israel connected to a modern one? Vegan mentioned language but that was resurrected in the 19th century. Why is Egypt only 1922, even though Coptic is still used in some communities? etc, etc) 996:
1. On the contrary. There is more continuity between 930BC Israel and 2024 Israel than between 2600BC Iran and 2024 Iran and between 2500BC India and 2024 India and 202BC Algeria and 2024 Algeria. For the sake of brevity, I'll make here a detailed comparison between the Israeli and Iranian case only.

I have noticed that for countries of ancient nations in this list the "date of acquisition of sovereignty" is the date of establishment of the earliest kingdoms even if that happened thousands of years ago, even if they are of a different nation and culture, and even if that sovereignty was disrupted
1509:
I tried to delete this column, but it turns out to be very difficult to do without messing up the formatting of the tables, so I gave it up as not worth the trouble. I agree to your suggestion as long as it is done CONSISTENTLY, and I'll watch for it. Anyway just a small correction. Hebrew was never
1404:
In practice, my view is that any date more than a few hundred years needs some very very close scrutiny since it is rare for a nation state to not change drastically and/or be conquered/annexed in that large an amount of time. I would guess dates more than 1000 years old would essentially disappear.
1400:
With regards to your question then my view is any break in continuity for the existence of these states resets the clock on any date in the article. If a country has been part of numerous kingdoms and conquered many times over centuries it cannot have a date of sovereignty thousands of years earlier
1393:
I think any discussion on dates regarding modern states needs to have clear direct continuity in the existence of that state. As mentioned it's essentially meaningless to regard states such as Greece, Iceland, Israel, Italy etc as having dates of "current form of government" or otherwise dating back
1254:
On the one hand the we have a group of modern states whose "date of Acquisition of sovereignty" is given hundreds or even thousands of years ago, despite the fact that many aspects of these dates can be disputed, such as: whether the modern concept of sovereignty even existed that far in the past?;
1210:
While i certainly also have concerns over claims for "date of acquisition of sovereignty" dating back thousands of years through many different eras, as others have said Israel has a very clear and prolonged break in its existence as a state. I would be more inclined to delete the column altogether.
1215:
included the dates you mention it would then become very hard to argue against their inclusion. This would obviously not serve the purpose of the article which is to list the dates of the origin of modern sovereign states rather than to make a list of the dates of first human settlements in regions.
789:
I don't think it's correct to say that the United Kingdom's current form of government was formed in 1922, with the independence of (most of the island of) Ireland. The government before and after 1922 was functionally the same, with the same constitution, practices, etc, just with a large chunk of
1270:
The other alternative is to move the first group to the status of the second one. That is, to decide that we don't want to get into all the controversies and disputes regarding ancient past, and just give the dates of the modern formal recognition of sovereignty which would mean something like the
1258:
On the other hand we have several modern states which have the same claim to have their "Acquisition of sovereignty" date to be hundreds or thousands years ago as the ones in the first group, and yet are given only a recent date in the 20th or 19th century. This list includes for example: Greece,
1020:
4. Religions: The religion of Israel now is basically the same religion as it was in 930BC - Judaism. On the other hand, the religion of Iran today is completely different from the religion of Elam which was a polytheistic religion. Even the later religion of the Persian empires predating Islam -
921:
OK, but I'm not focused on Israel here. This article is not a big interest item for me, but it's on my watchlist because of the messy situation regarding declaration of independence and acquisition of sovereignty (examples: Philippines, and the U.S.). The former generally gets celebrated as if it
1419:
As you said in you later comment here "I would be more inclined to delete the column altogether". Since I raised that possibility here several months ago nobody objected to deleting this column altogether, we can say there is a consensus about it. Also I have noticed recently something I missed
1214:
If we were to include such early dates for states with such profound breaks in continuity, through massive changes in rule and demographics and that ceased to exist for thousands of years then almost any date for a state right back to it's first human settlement is open to being included. Having
961:
I'll ignore your disrespectful tone for the time being. But obviously if "Iran in 2600 BC"="Iran now", and "India in 2500 BC"="India now", and "Japan in 660 BC"="Japan now" and "Algeria of 202 BC"="Algeria now" and "Armenia in 880 AD"="Armenia now" then all the more so "Israel in 930 BC"="Israel

I have no idea what the OR tag refers to. It was put there years before I got involved in this article. However you can rest assured that I don't intend to do any OR on this article. There is absolutely no need for it from my POV, as everything I'm going to add to the article will be based and
823:
The second table lists its date of last subordination as 1266, not 1066. I think this is a typo as nothing else on the page seems to give an event for that year. (In 1265 the Magna Carta was reaffirmed, does not see: to fit). I will change it to 1066, but if that's not what it should be please
1313:
The fact that there were independent Israelite/Jewish kingdoms in the land of Israel in the first millennium BC is established history and not a myth. That apart, an AfD is an extreme measure, and I'm not in favor of it at the moment (unless we try the other options first and they prove to be
1218:
Simply put if the sovereignty has not been continuously maintained through the state since the date listed the date should not be included. In the case of Israel, the modern state has not had sovereignty over its territory since 930BC so should not be included. If you feel this is unfair, as

1211:
A 2000+ year break in a states sovereignty or even existence does not meaningfully serve the purpose of the article. Yes, the modern state of Israel has made many efforts to re-establish old customs and history but it is in no way a continuation of the ancient kingdom.
