	The Territory of Westarctica was established on 2 November 2001 and has existed continually from that day forward. The land on which Westarctica rests was previously unclaimed by any nation or person.

	~~'''ARTICLE 3: THE GOVERNMENT'''<br>~~
	The Grand Duke is the chief administrator of Westarctica and the representative of the Westarctican people to the world at large. The office of the Grand Duke is for life.
