Talk:Unilateral declaration of independence
Appearance
It is questionable to say, "Many collapse, with the previous government and authority resuming control" because the degree of control that the entity making the UDI had in the first place may have been very weak or nonexistent. --Daniel C. Boyer 15:33, 29 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Daniel Quinlan 01:37, Jul 30, 2003 (UTC)Some unilaterally declared states never take hold, lacking any form of credibility, authority, or legitimacy. Of those that do take hold, a significant number collapse, with control returning to the previous government or shifting to a new follow-on government.
