Micronations

Quite a popular topic to discuss on AH.com - usually in a tongue-in-cheek way - and also even a hobby to some AH.commers. Sometimes, micronations are met with derision on the site, other times with praise, and most often, their assessment is somewhere in the middle and fairly neutral.

Founding date: 25 June 2011
Language: English, high-pitched penguin localisations
Military: According to GA's own account, “I've had to make do with human paramilitary forces and some UAVs. MQ-9, mostly. The bigger penguins have .22LR ultravelocity recoilless rifles strapped to them. The extra fast custom .22LR has extra punching power compared to normal .22LR. Much better than normal .22LR. The guns are open ended while firing, they are electrically fired. You don't want to be hit by it. The guards have AK-74s and PKMs. I've considered a few 20mm and 40mm guns on old BMPs. Maybe some 76mm. 105mm guns will arouse suspicion, and tanks would probably get us invaded.”.
