A '''[[micronation]]''', sometimes referred to as a '''model country''' or '''new country project''', is an entity that claims to be an independent nation or state but is not generally recognized by world governments or major international organizations.
His Royal Highness, '''[[Prince-Consort Dinny|Prince-Consort Dinny, the Marquis of Sarnoff]]''' is the spouse and royal consort of [[Grand Duke Travis]].


Micronations are distinguished from imaginary countries and from other kinds of social groups (such as eco-villages, campuses, tribes, clans, and sects) by expressing a formal and persistent, even if unrecognized, claim of [[sovereignty]] over some physical territory. Micronations are also distinct from true secessionist movements; micronations' activities are almost always peaceful enough to be ignored rather than challenged by the established nations whose territory they claim.
