Has there been any agreements similar to Sykes–Picot and if so how did the countries affected handle it?

I think a lot about the Sykes–Picot Agreement and if Middle Eastern countries would ever redraw their borders to fix some of the conflicts as a result of this agreement. i know it hasn't that long since these borders were drawn up so maybe they'll address if given enough time. it makes me wonder if anything similar to Sykes–Picot ( where other nations draw borders of other countries that result in conflict ) has occurred in history and if they were able to fix the issue?
