'''Krill''' are small crustaceans of the order Euphausiacea, and are found in all the world's oceans. The name "krill" comes from the Norwegian word ''krill'', meaning "small fry of fish", which is also often attributed to species of fish.
The '''[[2017 - State visit in Scone|2017 State Visit in Scone]]''' was a diplomatic event that occurred between the sovereign of the [[Kingdom of Scone]] and a delegation from [[Westarctica]] in the Niagara Falls region of upstate New York. It was considered an important event in the [[foreign relations of Westarctica]].


Krill are considered an important trophic level connection – near the bottom of the food chain – because they feed on phytoplankton and (to a lesser extent) zooplankton, converting these into a form suitable for many larger animals for which krill make up the largest part of their diets. In the [[Southern Ocean]], one species, the [[Antarctic krill]], ''Euphausia superba'', makes up an estimated biomass of around 379,000,000 tonnes, making it among the species with the largest total biomass. Of this, over half is eaten by whales, seals, penguins, squid, and fish each year, and is replaced by growth and reproduction.
The Westarctica delegation included Grand Duke Travis, the [[Countess of Benton]], and [[Prince-Consort Dinny]]. They met with [[James, King of the Sconnish|King James]] at Old Fort Niagara in Upstate New York, where the King led the visitors on a personal tour of the old battlements.
