independences
Freedoms from control
Independences is the plural of independence, used when referring to multiple instances of nations or entities gaining self-governance: The independences of former colonies occurred throughout the mid-twentieth century.
The singular independence—freedom from external control or self-sufficiency—rarely needs pluralizing, making this form uncommon outside historical or political contexts discussing several sovereignty movements at once.
