The '''[[Summit Upon the Seas]]''' is a [[Foreign relations of Westarctica|diplomatic summit]] that occurred between the [[micronation]]s of [[Westarctica]], the [[Republic of Molossia]], and the [[Kingdom of Shiloh]] onboard the ''Carnival Imagination'' cruise ship in international waters and Ensenada, Mexico from 21 - 24 October 2018.
'''[[Darling Ridge]]''' is a [[snow]]-covered, flat-topped ridge, 2,350 meters (7,700 ft) high, with precipitous rock sides. The ridge is 2.5 nautical miles (5 km) long and forms a notable landmark at the northwest corner of Buckeye Table in the [[Ohio Range]] of the [[Horlick Mountains]].


On the second day of the cruise, the attendees of the summit dressed in their official uniforms and finery for the 6:00pm dinner where [[Grand Duke Travis]] gave a champagne toast to commemorate the 10th Anniversary of the [[Kingdom of Shiloh]]. Immediately following dinner, the Heads of State departed for a meeting with the captain of the vessel, Giuseppe Strano, who took a moment from his busy schedule to receive the visiting leaders. While waiting for the captain to arrive, several of the ship's passengers stopped to pose for pictures with the foreign rulers, with many of them asking [[King Timothy of Shiloh|King Timothy]] if he was the captain of the ship.
The ridge was surveyed by the United States [[Antarctic]] Research Program Horlick Mountains Traverse party in December 1958. Darling Ridge was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in honor of Fredric L. Darling, a glaciological assistant with the traverse party.
