The Republic of Slowjamastan is a North American micronation landlocked within Imperial County, Southern California. It covers 11.07 acres of land, parallel to California State Route 78, between the towns of Ocotillo Wells and Westmorland. Slowjamastan was founded on 18 August 2021 by nationally syndicated radio personality Randy "R Dub!" Williams who would immediately declare himself Sultan of Slowjamastan. While no physical land was in possession when the nation was founded, on 3 September 2021, Williams entered into an agreement to purchase eleven acres of land. On 4 October 2021, Williams completed escrow and closed the deal on his land purchase.

-'''[[MicroCon 2017]]''' marked the first meeting between representatives of the Kingdom of Talossa and [[Westarctica]], two nations with competing claims to territory in [[Marie Byrd Land]]. Although Talossa's claim pre-dates Westarctica's by several years, Westarctica's claim was made through legal channels and not simply "declared." In any case, neither nation has ever formally recognized the claims of the other. Prior to meeting at the summit, some members of Talossa's government had displayed open hostility to Westarctica in the form of online propaganda. In turn, [[Grand Duke Travis]] refused to formally acknowledge Talossa's existence as a [[sovereignty|sovereign]] nation.

-During the conference, the Grand Duke was introduced to Munditenens (Dien) Tresplet, the Royal Governor of Talossa's Pengöpäts Antarctic Territory. After lengthy discussion, the Royal Governor joined hands with [[Grand Duke Travis]] and Baron Omar Cisneros, the representative from [[Grand Duchy of Flandrensis|Flandrensis]], and agreed to peacefully resolve any conflicts concerning their competing [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] claims.
