Well I suppose you could say Canada did. But it was more like we asked England politely if we could have our own constitution (the queen can still pretend she has power, nudge, nudge) and they said yes. I think Australia is the same in that regard.

has any nation ever been created by seceding and not been invaded by the country they broke off from?

So did the Czech Republic and Slovakia. But those were mutual accords more than unilateral secessions.
