'''''[[Usnea antarctica]]''''' is a shrub [[lichen]] found throughout the continent of [[Antarctica]] as well as on Subantarctic islands. This species of lichen is the [[National Symbols of Westarctica|national plant]] of [[Westarctica]]. It predominantly grows on exposed rock and can even be found growing on different sides of individual pebbles. ''U. antarctica'' has an extremely slow growth period and are among some of the longest-lived species on planet earth. An age of 200 years is typical for most specimens, however, the record age for ''U. antarctica'' is an estimated 4,500 years. In the Antarctic, its tendrils grow to a width of a few millimeters, while in the Subantarctic, they can grow to be over a foot in length. Specimens are plentiful at the abandoned [[Russkaya Station]] on the [[Ruppert Coast]] and have been studied as part of a research effort surrounding the soils of [[Marie Byrd Land]].
The '''Summit of the Three Kings''' was a diplomatic event that brought together [[King Christopher of Vikesland]], [[King Timothy of Shiloh]], and [[Grand Duke Travis|King Montague of Calsahara]] in Anaheim, California for a day-long summit aimed at increasing goodwill and friendship between the three leaders and their nations. The majority of the summit took place in and around the Disneyland theme park in Anaheim, California. The three Kings toured the park and spent most of the day riding the rides and enjoying one another's company. Discussions concerning national histories and motivations for becoming [[micronation|micronationalists]] dominated the conversations as did strategies for increasing the legitimacy of their countries.
