The Weirdest Micronations That Have Ever Existed

image credit

Ever heard of the Kingdom of Elleore, the Kingdom of Talossa, the Republic of Kugelmugel or Freetown Christiania? These are or were all micronations, entities that claim to be an independent nation or state but are not officially recognized by world governments.

Living in a regular country, with a normal government, can get annoying sometimes. Taxes, laws, political disputes... it's all kind of a bummer. So why not go live in a tiny country of your own? Some people have done it - and here are the most creative and strangest tiny nations on Earth, past and present.
