Without Religion...there is nothing for zealots to use to control the masses.

There's always fervent nationalism. As an example, the Basques want a homeland and occasionally blow up things in Spain to make the point.

Some segment of the Quebec population wants to cede from Canada - not a violent movement but it seems rooted in national rather than religious colours.
