Description Last for today is the first that isn't for a micronation, rather it is for an unrecognized state.

Western Togoland is a region of Ghana that has been in rebellion since 2020 for ethnic reasons. The Ewe people who inhabit the region wanted an Ewe-majority state when Africa was being decolonized in the 1960s. However, their homeland had been split between a British colony and a French colony. The Ewes were not given an option to rejoin their homeland into one and the British part of Togoland became part of Ghana whilst the French part of Togoland became independent as Togo.

Although the conflict has been much more low-intensity than some other rebellions, especially in the region, it still continues.

Also, is it just me or does the symbol of the shaking hands make this look like the logo of a humanitarian aid organization?
