we had one in Tasmania: The Grand Duchy of Avram. He had his currency confiscated by the government and was taken to court. He won and his bank still operates as well as his Grand Duchy nation

I Love the idea of micro nations, i think it shows that countries dont allways need to fight to have freedom, it shows mabye just a little laugh and a bit of fun can solve most of our clashes XD

[@ballsfishhhh]

I had in mind creating a virtual micronation named "Ornurense Portugal" and it would be like a mix of World of Warcraft with Deus Ex and Cyberpunk 2077

I wonder if any of them are involved in trade with one another? I bet that'll get them some attention

Here in WA we had Hutt River Province which lasted from 1970 - 2020, when it was ceded back to the Australian government. The tax got the family in the end, and the same will happen to these other micro nations.
