Nações? [Sealand]


http://www.sealandgov.org

Sealand - Fundada por Michael Bates. Fica mesmo junto ao Reino Unido... Vejam no site que explica tudo...em resumo...o gajo é o rei de um "país" criado por ele. E sim...isto existe mesmo!

On September 2, 1967, the fort was occupied by Paddy Roy Bates, a British subject and pirate radio broadcaster, who ejected a competing group of pirate broadcasters and claimed it as his own.

At that time, the United Kingdom claimed territorial waters of three nautical miles (5.6 km) from its coast, and therefore Roughs Tower was located in international waters, outside the territorial jurisdiction of any state. After taking legal advice, Bates declared the fortress to be an independent state, named it Sealand, and declared himself and his wife, Joan Bates, to be its sovereign rulers.
