MicroCon 2022 was a micronational event that occurred from August 4 - 7, 2022 at Sam's Town Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was the fourth conference to be held under the MicroCon banner. The event had initially been planned for Summer of 2021, but was delayed due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. It was hosted by Westarctica and was a major event in the history of foreign relations of Westarctica. The total attendance figure was 116 people, setting a new record for the largest gathering of micronationalists at that time.

The main conference occurred on Saturday, 6 August at Sam's Town Hotel and Casino. Approximately 100 delegates and 10 members of the press were in attendance to learn from their fellow micronationalists during a series of 16 presentations covering every possible topic from art to politics. Originally, only 14 presentations were scheduled, but one nation dropped out and three others were added to fill the open space.

-The '''[[Antarctic toothfish]]''' is a species of cod icefish native to the [[Southern Ocean]]. It is often mistakenly referred to as an [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] cod, consistent with the misnaming of other notothenioid Antarctic fish as rock cods. However, notothenioid fishes are unrelated to cods, which are in another taxonomic order, the Gadiformes. The common name "toothfish" refers to the presence of biserial dentition in the upper jaw, thought to give it a shark-like appearance. The habitat of the Antarctic toothfish is in subzero degree water below latitude 60°S.

-Over the continental shelf, Antarctic toothfish feed on shrimp and small fish, principally another neutrally buoyant nototheniid, the [[Antarctic silverfish]]. This loosely schooling species is also a major prey of [[Adélie penguin|Adélie]] and [[emperor penguin|emperor penguins]], [[Weddell seal|Weddell seals]], and Antarctic [[minke whale|minke whales]].
