'''[[MicroCon 2019]]''' was a gathering of leaders and representatives of [[micronation|micronations]] that took place in Hamilton, Ontario from 19 - 21 July 2019. It was the third such conference to occur under the [[MicroCon]] banner, the first having been [[MicroCon 2015]] in Anaheim, California, and the second, [[MicroCon 2017]], in Atlanta, Georgia. With an attendance figure of 103 people, it was double the size of the previous MicroCon.
The '''[[king penguin]]''' is a large species of [[penguin]], second only to the [[emperor penguin]] in size. King penguins eat small fish, mainly lanternfish, and squid. They are less reliant on [[krill]] and other crustaceans than most [[Southern Ocean]] predators. On foraging trips king penguins repeatedly dive to over 100 meters (300 ft), and have been recorded at depths greater than 300 meters (1,000 ft).

While the conference was scheduled to occur over the course of three days, the bulk of the structured events took place on the second day, July 20th. This was when various representatives gave presentations on a wide array of micronational topics. That evening featured a formal dinner and gala. The first and third days of the conference had a more relaxed atmosphere, as many attendees also used them as travel days. The event was hosted by the government of [[Slabovia]].

The king penguin is a large species of penguin, second only to the emperor penguin in size. King penguins eat small fish, mainly lanternfish, and squid. They are less reliant on krill and other crustaceans than most Southern Ocean predators. On foraging trips king penguins repeatedly dive to over 100 meters (300 ft), and have been recorded at depths greater than 300 meters (1,000 ft). King penguins breed on the subantarctic islands at the northern reaches of Antarctica, South Georgia, and other temperate islands of the region. King penguins do not live or breed in Westarctica.
