Shortest Lived Country?

What’s the shortest-lived country in history? Prepare to be surprised!

Number 3 is the Republic of Texas. It stood as an independent nation for nearly ten years (1836-1846) before becoming part of the U.S.

Number 2 is Biafra, which fought for independence during the Nigerian Civil War. This self-proclaimed nation lasted only three years (1967-1970) before being reintegrated into Nigeria.

The title goes to Zanzibar, which declared independence in 1964 but lasted just 38 days before merging with Tanganyika to create Tanzania. Imagine starting a country and having it vanish in just over a month!

These fleeting nations show just how quickly political dreams can fade! Which one surprised you the most?
