The 10 Most Exotic Sub-countries In The World

Self-proclaimed kings and queens around the world have their annual gathering in the Free Republic of Alcatraz.1. Redonda Kingdom: Located between Nevis Island and Montserrat Island in the Caribbean, the small Redonda island has been owned by Matthew Dowdy Shiell since 1865 with the approval of the British Colonial Office. As in the text, his title is "king". The title was later given to his son, Matthew Phipps Shiell, when his son ascended the throne at the age of 15 under the witness of a bishop from Antigua

. ownership of the tiny island nation Redonda. 2. Sealand: During World War II, this was a sea fortress located seven miles from the Suffolk coast, occupied and claimed by pirate Paddy Roy Bates in 1967 In 1968, the British court indirectly supported Bates.



when announcing a fort was outside the jurisdiction of England. Before that, Bates was summoned for shooting at 2 workers who were installing navigation buoys nearby. This 2.5-hectare fortress has its own constitution, national flag, national anthem, national uniform, currency and passport. The fortress was once captured by the Germans but unsuccessful. Bates died in 2012 and the territory is now inherited by Bates' son, Prince Michael of Sealand. 3 In 1982, in an effort to curb drug trafficking, the US Coast Guard conducted a major inspection on the road connecting the Florida Keys and the mainland, resulting in traffic congestion and reduced tourist arrivals.



The mayor of Key West, Dennis Wardlow, assumed that such blocked roads were no different from a border and he did something crazy: declaring complete independence from the United States. He even declared war on the United States, but quickly surrendered a few minutes later. This display drew attention to the city of Key West, and the investigation redirected. Today, the name Conch Republic is still used for commercial purposes. Molossian Republic: Originating from a 1977 school project by Kevin Baugh, Republic of Molossia founded in 1999, consists of only one acre house of Baugh in Nevada. Baugh describes his country with the bizarre phrase "Banana Totalitarian Republic." Molossia, though never recognized, has numerous treaties with other small nations. Molossia claims to be one of the first countries to recognize Kosovo's sovereignty, and Baugh's efforts are not necessarily in vain.



At least his "country" still attracts a certain number of tourists, they even have to book a schedule before coming here. Uzupis Republic: Another case even more bizarre than a single home country of Kevin Baugh, is the Uzupis state, which is a district in Vilnius, Lithuania. Claimed in 1997, this small state has a constitutional set with rather "fun" terms: "Dogs have the right to be dogs" or "People have the right to live on the banks of the Vilnele River, and the Vilnele River the right to flow through people ", or" People have the right to have individual characteristics ". Uzupis even has the national flag, national anthem, and military. This "project" is loud and humorous. 6. Free Town Christiania The free town of Christiania, founded in 1971, has 850 people, located in the Copenhagen district of Christianshavn. This was one of the successful claims of sovereignty when the Danish authorities passed autonomy to this town.



Performing arts, yoga, and meditation are popular activities in Christiania. Drugs made from hemp are publicly traded. Visitors here will be amazed at the town's somewhat unusual walls and architecture. The Grand Duke of Flandrensis Formed by a Belgian named Niels Vermeersch in 2008, Flandrensis claimed sovereignty over five Antarctic islands, Siple, Cherry, Maher, Pranke and Carney based on the 1959 Antarctic Treaty Interpretation. The land has its own identity card, currency, newspaper, constitution and national anthem. There are more than 100 citizens from 21 different countries. Hutt River Territory 350 miles from Perth, Western Australia, the territory of the Hutt river was founded by Leonard George Casley (now "Prince Leonard") in 1970 in a protest against the government's land policy. It is now a tourist attraction with 40,000 visitors per year.



Although 75 km² wide, but the territory has only 23 settlers. Hutt River has its own currency, and even accepts incorporation cases (however the Australian Tax Office has voiced doubts about its legality). This forgotten sub-nation was founded in 1948 by Russell Arundel, an American businessman working for PepsiCo, on the Outer Bald Tusket island. Arundel noticed the island while fishing and bought it for 750 USD. The currency here is salmon. So anyone who wants to fish for salmon must get the prince's approval. In 1973, Arundel sold the territory to Nova Scotia. 10.
