| Impact statement: This article analyzes how states practice recognition of competing governments, particularly in cases like Myanmar after its 2021 coup. It argues that state practice remains inconsistent and political rather than legally constrained, even when democratic legitimacy is at stake, offering legal insights into recognition theory under international law. | Collaboration: None | Keywords: Myanmar; Recognition of governments; National Unity Government (NUG); International law; State practice |
