MICRO NATIONS by Dr. Shiva Narayan
Micronations, sometimes also referred to as model countries and new country projects, are small, self-proclaimed entities that assert their sovereignty as independent states but which are not acknowledged as such by any of the recognised sovereign states, or by any supranational organization. They should not be confused with microstates, which are recognised independent states of a small size, nor should they be confused with unrecognised states, which are of more geopolitical significance because they exercise clear control of actual territory to the exclusion of widely recognized countries.
Motivations for the creation of micronations include theoretical experimentation, political protest, artistic expression, personal entertainment and the conduct of criminal activity.[1]: 4
The following is a list of notable micronations.
Current Flag Foundation Name Description Antarctica

Israel
1971 Akhzivland A squatter in the ancient, abandoned village of Achziv slowly established a popular vacation spot. Annoyed by the encroachment of various government projects, he and his wife finally declared their haven independent. He then brought a lawsuit against the Israeli government, which resulted in the award of a 99-year lease to him,[28][29] but not full legal recognition of his micronation. Akhzivland's founder died in 2018. Although he was survived by his wife, the subsequent status of the micronation was unclear.[30]
Italy
2011 Principality of Filettino Created by the mayor of Filettino in protest at the Italian government's austerity measure that reorganised the local government of towns with less than 1,000 residents.[31]
1963 Principality of Seborga Citing mediaeval documents, a resident of Seborga asserted that the town had been a sovereign state since 954 AD.[1]: 55 Seborga does not claim to be exempt from Italian legal jurisdiction, however.

Lithuania
[b] 1997 Republic of Užupis Užupis is a neighbourhood in the Old Town of Vilnius which declared itself a republic. The dilapidated area long has been favoured by artists.

1276 and 1947 Free Borough of Llanrwst Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, Prince of Wales, declared the town of Llanrwst a "free borough", and not part of the Diocese of Llanelwy. This royal privilege was successfully defended against reversal by the Catholic Church for some decades.
1967 Principality of Sealand Paddy Roy Bates took over HM Fort Roughs, a defunct Maunsell Fort built off the coast of Suffolk during World War II, and declared it an independent country. At the time, the fort was international waters. In 1978, Germany sent a diplomat to Sealand to negotiate with Bates for the release of a German citizen who claimed to be Sealand's prime minister, and had led a failed attack on the fort. Bates would thereafter claim that the dispatching of the emissary constituted recognition of Sealand by Germany. The purported prime minister set up a Sealand government in exile after being repatriated to Germany. In 1987, the United Kingdom extended its territorial waters, which now encompass Sealand.[1]: 8–13
United States
1982 Conch Republic Frustrated by a United States Border Patrol checkpoint on the only road into Key West, Florida, the city's leaders, including mayor Dennis Wardlow, humorously declared Key West independent.[1]: 130 The republic later expanded its territorial claims to include a nearby area on the Florida mainland. None 1998 Maritime Republic of Eastport When Eastport temporarily was cut off from the rest of Annapolis, Maryland, by maintenance on a drawbridge, a group of residents of the neighbourhood declared it independent, as a way to promote business.[42][43]
1994 Kingdom of EnenKio Mainly known as a front for financial fraud,[44] this micronation claims as its territory Wake Island, a remote atoll in the Pacific Ocean that is a United States insular area, but is also claimed by the Marshall Islands.[45] EnenKio has ties to Melchezidek (q.v.), another micronation. None 1974 Ganienkeh A group of Native Americans of the Mohawk tribe occupied an area near Moss Lake, in New York State, claiming it to be part of a far larger territory that had been illegally acquired from indigenous Americans in 1797.[46] After years of negotiations with the state, the group agreed to move to an area near Altona. Issues of sovereignty remain unresolved.[47][48]
1977 Republic of Molossia This micronation existed only as a concept until its founder bought land in Nevada in 1998.[49] None c.1965 Most Serene Federal Republic of Montmartre This republic, retroactively dated to 1636, encompasses the Theater District in the borough of Manhattan, in New York City. In the late 1970s, a dispute between Montmartre's founder and New York Telephone, over whether the micronation could be listed in the government pages of the phone book, ended up in front of the New York Public Service Commission. The commission vacillated, alternately issuing rulings in favour of each party, and listings for the republic did appear in at least a few editions of the New York Telephone book.
2021 United Territories of the Sovereign Nation of The People's Republic of Slowjamastan A micronation in Imperial County, Southern California that was founded by slow jam DJ Randy Williams. It claims an empty, 11-acre plot of desert land along the California State Route 78 that Williams purchased for $19,000.[50][51]
1990s Washitaw Nation The Washitaw Nation is an African American group that defines itself ethnically, rather than by territory, akin to a Native American tribe.

The micronation claims international borders as its territory, as well as other "interstitial territories" such as Limbo, and counts all dead persons as its citizens. In 2007, Elgaland-Vargaland claimed to have annexed Isola di San Michele, in the Venetian Lagoon.
2015 Free Republic of Liberland Vít Jedlička founded this micronation, which claims part of the land on the disputed border of Serbia and Croatia. Access to the area asserted to be Liberland is mostly controlled by Croatia. YouTube host Niko Omilana visited the land in April 2023.[53] There are approximately 20 Liberland citzens on the territory as of August 2023.[54] Global states or no territory
2016 Space Kingdom of Asgardia Igor Ashurbeyli founded Asgardia, which has the objective of creating a colony in orbit that is an independent country. Under the Outer Space Treaty, no nation may lay claim to territory in space. A number of smaller countries are not parties to this treaty, however. Asgardia launched a small satellite in 2017, and claimed the space occupied by it as the micronation's territory.[55] The satellite re-entered the atmosphere and burnt up in 2022,[56] as was expected.
2008 Empire of Austenasia Austenasia purports to be a successor to the Roman Empire. It was founded in a house, which now serves as the micronation's capital, in Sutton, a borough of Greater London, United Kingdom. Austenasia's claimed territory has been extended to other small properties around the world as new citizens have joined the micronation.[57] Link to file 2000 Global Country of World Peace Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the founder of Transcendental Meditation, established this "country without borders for peace-loving people everywhere."[58] It has made several unsuccessful attempts to create sovereign territory in recognized countries by offering financial compensation to their governments or to local residents. The micronation's currency has gained some limited acceptance. As of 2023, the GCWP is led by Tony Nader.[59] Link to file 1990 Dominion of Melchizedek This source of financial fraud[60] claims several Pacific islands, as well as a portion of Antarctica that has not been claimed by any recognized country, comprising most of Marie Byrd Land. (Two other micronations, Talossa and Westarctica, q.v., have also asserted control of this area in the Antarctic.) Melchezidek has been recognized by the Central African Republic.
1998 Nova Roma Nova Roma is an organization that seeks to recreate a "classical Roman" society. It subscribes to ancient Roman religion, holds competitions and re-enactments, and mints its own coinage. It is considered by some to be a micronation.[61][62][63][64][65]
1973 Nutopia John Lennon and Yoko Ono founded this "conceptual country", partly as a satirical response to the United States government's attempt to deport Lennon. Nutopia "has no land ... only people", and anyone may declare himself a citizen.[66][67]
1979 Kingdom of Talossa An American teenager in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, created this micronation, the territory of which was initially limited to his bedroom. It has since expanded into part of Milwaukee, as well as other locations on Earth (including Marie Byrd Land, which is also claimed by two other micronations, Melchezidek and Westarctica; q.v.). Talossa's founder claims to have invented the term micronation as well.[1]: 101 Although Talossa was disestablished by its founder in 2005, it nevertheless continues to exist, due to the continued efforts of its citizens.[68] The micronation is notable for having its own invented language, which has an extensive vocabulary.

1978-1996 Sovereign Humanitarian Mission State of Aeterna Lucia The founder of Aeterna Lucia, who claimed to have been made a baron by an exiled king of Afghanistan, declared his property in New South Wales a sovereign country. He moved twice within New South Wales, taking his micronation with him. He was charged with fraud in 1990, but the case was eventually dropped.[69]
2004-2017 Gay and Lesbian Kingdom of the Coral Sea Islands In protest of the national government's refusal to recognize same-sex marriages performed elsewhere in the world, a group of gay rights activists declared the Coral Sea Islands independent. The micronation counted all gay and lesbian people worldwide as permanent residents and eligible for citizenship. In 2017, the Australian government agreed to legalize same-sex marriage if a majority of voters responding to an official survey supported it. The results were in favour of legalization. Its objective having been achieved, the kingdom was dissolved.
1970-2020 Principality of Hutt River During a dispute with the Western Australia government over its limits on wheat production, Leonard Casley declared his sizable farm an independent province, though he remained loyal to Queen Elizabeth II.[1]: 22 The micronation persisted for decades.
