You have to spend the rest of your life in a micronation. Which do you choose? (lemmy.world)

You have been sentenced to life in a micronation of your choosing (Sealand, Molossia, etc.) The micronation must have actual land and you may never leave that land. What micronation do you choose?

Edit: clarification of the rules. A micronation is by definition not recognized internationally. As a result, small sovereign states like the Vatican are not allowed.

Also you can't just make your own micronation wherever you want. It has to already exist.

I was awarded the Royal Decoration of Saint Michael the Archangel from the Principality of Kaharagia, so that would be my first choice, since I’m a Lady. Last I knew they were still looking for land, though, so that may be out.

~~Second choice is Monaco.~~

e: didn’t realise Monaco is officially recognised.

In that case, The Republic of Saugeais.

I was awarded the Royal Decoration of Saint Michael the Archangel

Did you pay for it? 💀

Oh god no, lol. They don’t allow that. (4th link)

I’d never heard of them before they notified me I was getting the award. I don’t know who nominated me, either. ¯\(ツ)//¯

Huh, interesting. What was their reason?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

How can I purchase a Kaharagian title or knighthood?

The acquisition of a Kaharagian title or knighthood through purchase is not possible. Our principality upholds the principles outlined in Royal Decree No. 5/2010, which explicitly prohibits the sale of titles and honours. This decree, enacted by the Prince as one of the foundational tenets of our principality, ensures the integrity of our system. It is crucial to note that engaging in such transactions is not only forbidden but also reprehensible, as it serves as a deceptive means for scammers to exploit individuals seeking titles. In Kaharagia, titles and honours are bestowed solely based on demonstrated service, dedication, and meritorious contributions, reinforcing the core values that underpin our principality.

I just realised I may have misunderstood your question. Sorry about that.

The reason for the award? History education and preservation, and community work.

Ah okay, that is interesting
