Statehood is typically granted by the central government or the ruling authority of a country. In most cases, a territory or region that wishes to become a state must meet certain criteria set by the central government, such as having a defined territory, a permanent population, a functioning government, and the ability to support itself economically. The process of granting statehood varies from country to country.
