This question is difficult to answer because the term "separate country" is nebulous. If the question is asking when was the first time that somebody picked up a map and drew the outline of Iraq on it and said, "I will name this territory Iraq", then the answer would be 1918 when the British and French were dividing up former Ottoman territories and Iraq was an oil-rich territory that the British wanted. If your question is about when Iraq declared independence as sovereign nation, then the answer would be 1923 because that is when Iraq was given independence from the United Kingdom. If your question is about when Iraq was finally out of the United Kingdom's sphere of influence and proceeded to make its own policies, the answer is 1954 when King Faisal II was assassinated in a car-bombing and the Ba'ath Party took control of Iraq.

In 1932, Britain granted independence to Iraq. They established Iraq as a Kingdom and later a Republic intentionally to cause religious strife within the country between the three tribes to prevent a rise of power in Iraq.
