*[[Jewish exodus from the Muslim world]]
* [[Vietnam War]]: Throughout the Vietnam War and in the years preceding it, many populations were forced out of Vietnam and the surrounding countries as a result of armed conflict and/or persecution by their governments, such as the [[Socialist Republic of Vietnam]].

*[[Salvadoran Civil War]]: Throughout and after the 12-year conflict between the Salvadoran government and the [[Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front|FMLN]], Salvadorans faced forced displacement as a result of combat, persecution, and deteriorating quality of life/access to socioeconomic opportunities. Overall, one in four Salvadorans were internally and externally displaced (over one million people).<ref>{{Cite web|title=Truth Commission: El Salvador|url=https://www.usip.org/publications/1992/07/truth-commission-el-salvador|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170223015049/https://www.usip.org/publications/1992/07/truth-commission-el-salvador|url-status=dead|archive-date=February 23, 2017|access-date=2022-01-03|website=United States Institute of Peace|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Annual Report 1989–1990 – Table of Contents|url=http://www.cidh.org/annualrep/89.90eng/TOC.htm|access-date=2022-01-03|publisher=[[Inter-American Commission on Human Rights]] }}</ref>
* [[2021 Myanmar coup d'état]]: Since the coup d’état of 1 February 2021, the Burmese military's ascendancy into power has resulted in widespread chaos and violence, aggravated by the refusal of large sections of the public to accept a military regime given the country's experiences during the second half of the 20th and early years of the 21st century. As a result, many in the public sector have initiated strikes,<ref>{{Cite web|date=2021-04-09|title=Myanmar on the Brink of State Failure|url=https://www.crisisgroup.org/asia/south-east-asia/myanmar/myanmar-brink-state-failure|access-date=2022-01-03|website=Crisis Group|language=en}}</ref> and the country has seen elevated levels of forced displacement, both internally displaced persons (IDPs) (208,000 since 1 February 2021) and refugees fleeing abroad (an estimated 22,000 since 1 February 2021).<ref>{{Cite web|title=Myanmar Emergency Update (as of 15 September 2021) – Myanmar|url=https://reliefweb.int/report/myanmar/myanmar-emergency-update-15-september-2021|access-date=2022-01-03|website=ReliefWeb|date=21 September 2021 |language=en}}</ref> The particular political conflict causing the displacement has been flagged as symptomatic of that of a state on the brink of collapse. Two key indicators of this that have been highlighted are firstly, that levels of security have been severely reduced to the point where citizens are no longer protected from violence by the state; and secondly, goods and services are not being reliably supplied to citizens either by the ousted government or by the new military leadership, primarily as a result of the instability created and the strikes triggered.<ref>Cojanu, V. and Popescu, A. I. (2007). "Analysis of Failed States: Some Problems of Definition and Measurement". ''The Romanian Economic Journal'' 25. pp.113–132.</ref> These internal problems are further reflected by the withdrawal of international recognition by both governmental and non-governmental bodies.<ref>{{Cite news|date=2021-06-19|title=Myanmar coup: UN calls for arms embargo against military|language=en-GB|work=BBC News|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-57536032|access-date=2022-01-03}}</ref>
