   Partition is the division of an entity into parts. A political partition has often been considered as an objective description: a previously unified territorial entity is divided into two or more parts. Each is demarcated, perhaps with fences, walls, paint or barbed wire, and official posts, where passports may be demanded.

   Why should a nation be partitioned?

   • The usual justification of a partition is that it will reduce or resolve, a national, ethnic or communal conflict. Its opponents, however, protest the freshness, the novelty, the brutality, and the artificiality of dividing a ‘national’ homeland.

   How are national partitions preserved?

   What causes national partitions?

   • National partitions are generally caused by intra-national civil wars accompanied by large-scale interstate wars (or cold wars or foreign interventions) that stabilize the lines of control. These partitions produce schizophrenic entities which claim to be the true embodiment of the nation, and which seek its reunification in their image.
