A rump state is the remnant of a once-larger state. Some states labeled as rump states, or that today would be considered rump states, at one point or another are listed below.

Ancient history

Early ancient history

• The Kingdom of Judah as successor to the United Monarchy after the Kingdom of Israel seceded c. 930 BC to its conquest by Babylonia in 586 BC, particularly during Egyptian and Kushite aggression from then until c. 901 BC.
• Ancient Egypt from the late 8th century BC until its Babylonian conquest. See also Twenty-fifth dynasty of Egypt (the period of Kushite rule.)
• Athens from 490 to 479 BC during the Greco-Persian Wars and after the Peloponnesian War until its Macedonian conquest (from 404 to 338 BC.)
• The Seleucid Empire from the rise of Parthia in the late 2rd century BC to its final conquest by the Roman Empire in 60 BC.
• Ptolemaic Egypt from the loss of its Asiatic lands to the Seleucid Empire in the 2nd century BC until its union with the Roman Empire in 30 BC. See also Syrian Wars.
• The Greco-Bactrian Kingdom because of Yuezhi aggression from 162 BC to the conquest of Bactria proper in 120 BC, then the Indo-Greek Kingdom as its successor until its Indo-Scythian conquest c. AD 10.

Late ancient history

• The Kushan Empire from c. AD 250 to its liquidation c. 450 by the Hephthalites.
• The Eastern Roman Empire from the Slavic, Avar, and Bulgar invasions of the Balkan Peninsula and the Persian invasions of eastern Asia Minor of the AD mid-6th century, particularly after its progressive loss of Italy to the Lombards starting in 565 and during the height of the Sassanid Empire in the early 7th century, when it lost most of its Asiatic lands and Egypt.
• Tang Dynasty China during the loss of its northern and western lands to Tibet from c. 750 to 763.
• The Emirate of Córdoba as the restored successor to the Umayyad Caliphate after the loss of its Asian and most of its African lands to the Abbasids from 756 until 929, and then the Caliphate of Córdoba as its successor until its dissolution in 1031. See also Battle of the Zab.
• The Duchy of Benevento as successor to the Lombard Kingdom of Italy after the loss of its northern lands to the Franks in 774 until its division into the kingdoms of Capua and Salerno in 849.

Modern history

• The Republic of German-Austria (1918–1919).
• Hungarian Soviet Republic (1919) which controlled only around 25% of former Hungarian state.
• Russia is considered by one source to be a rump state of the former Soviet Union.
• The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, that is, the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro (1992-2003), was often viewed as the rump state left behind by the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (1945-1992) when it broke up. This view of it was held not only by its founders but also by many people antagonistic to them, who perceived Serbians and Montenegrins as unofficially or unwelcomely dominant among the various peoples under the socialist regime.
• The Republic of China: Following the victory of the Chinese communists in establishing the People's Republic of China on the Chinese mainland during the Chinese Civil War, the Republic of China remained as a rump state on the island of Taiwan and some minor islands.
