Mouvement souverainiste

The Mouvement souverainiste, or sovereigntist movement, advocates for the political independence of a specific region or territory from its current nation. It focuses on promoting local self-governance, sovereignty, and the preservation of cultural identity. In contexts like Quebec, the movement seeks to establish the region as a fully independent country rather than remaining part of a larger state like Canada. This movement involves political, cultural, and economic strategies aimed at gaining independence or increased autonomy, emphasizing the region's distinct identity and the desire to control its own future.
