Lars Christensen was a Norwegian shipowner and whaling magnate. He was also a philanthropist with a keen interest in the exploration of Antarctica.
The Antarctic Micronational Union (AMU) is a defunct coalition that was the first inter-micronational organization comprised exclusively of micronations that claimed Antarctic territory. The main goal of the AMU was to organize all Antarctic micronations and protect the territory and claims of its member states. During its tenure, the AMU also maintained the most up-to-date information about current claims in Antarctica to avoid misunderstandings and conflicts. Since 2010 the AMU has been mentioned in Dutch, Belgian, and Russian news media.
The Antarctic Micronational Union was officially established on 6 December 2008 as the Grupo Del Acuerdo Micronational Antartico (GAMA) by the Kingdom of Finismund, Marie State, and the Grand Duchy of Flandrensis. The Federated States of Antarctica and Keep Watch were the first micronations which joined the organisation after its foundation. The GAMA formed as coalition of states allied against Westarctica during the 2009 Siple War.
