How is Tibet a stateless nation?
Tibet is considered a stateless nation because it is an ethnic and cultural region with a distinct identity that lacks sovereign statehood. Historically, Tibet operated as an independent entity with its own governance and cultural practices until it was incorporated into the People's Republic of China in 1950. Since then, Tibetans have sought greater autonomy and recognition of their rights, but they do not have an independent state to represent their national identity. The ongoing struggle for self-determination and preservation of their culture highlights Tibet's status as a stateless nation.
