MicroCon 2023 was an intermicronational event hosted by the Royal Republic of Ladonia during the summer of 2023. It was the fifth event to occur under the MicroCon banner. The main conference was held in Joliet, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, during the weekend of July 1st. MicroCon 2023 was attended by 133 delegates representing 42 countries, making this the largest gathering of micronationalists ever held in the entire world.

In the evening following the conference, the delegations dressed in their most formal attire and attended a gala ball complete with a three course meal. During the gala, several major awards were handed out, including two inductees to the Micronational Hall of Excellence: Queen Carolyn of Ladonia and Queen Anastasia of Ruritania. Also, King George II of Slabovia bestowed a special honorary patch upon the few micronational leaders who have attended very MicroCon to date.

-The '''[[bald notothen]]''' is a species of cod icefish native to the [[Southern Ocean]] where it is found in the [[Weddell Sea]], the [[Ross Sea]], the Davis Sea, in Vincennes Bay, and around the Budd Coast, the [[Antarctic Peninsula]], South Orkneys and South Shetland Islands.

-It can be found at depths of from the surface to 550 meters (1,800 ft) though it is much rarer below 30 meters (98 ft). This species is often found along the under surfaces of [[ice]] foraging for prey such as sympagic copepods and [[krill]]. In turn, it is known to be preyed upon by the [[ploughfish]] and the [[Antarctic toothfish]]. Antifreeze proteins in its blood prevent it freezing in the subzero water temperatures of [[Antarctica]].
