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]].
The title '''[[Grand Duke of Westarctica]]''' was created by Travis McHenry in June 2004 as part of the transition of the [[Achaean Territory of Antarctica|Achaean Territory]] from a [[Micronations|new country project]] to a [[sovereignty|sovereign]] nation. The legal basis for the creation of the title is found in the [[Grand Ducal Mandate]], as well as the [[Achaean Royal Charter]].
