If you are referring to the period of colonization and colonialism, certainly one of the first was the United States of America, which declared its independence from England in 1776; the Americans fought and won the Revolutionary War (1775-1781). Another early country to declare independence was Haiti, which gained its freedom from France in 1804.
After WWI, new countries were formed. Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, and Finland gained independence from Russia. Poland reappeared. Austria-Hungary dissolved into Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia. The Ottoman Empire dissolved into independent Turkey and British and French mandates (Syria, Transjordan, others).
