The majority of the new countries in Europe and Asia were a result of the fall of the communism, so lot of countries formed on what was once the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia, as well some countries that split into two, like Czechoslovakia.

Ethnic and religious problems, mainly in Africa resulted in splitting of countries, thus formation of new ones, such as Sudan and South Sudan.
