Wesley E. LeMasurier is an igneous petrologist/volcanologist who specializes in the study of Cenozoic volcanoes in the Marie Byrd Land region of Antarctica. He was responsible for geological research around many of Westarctica's volcanic mountains. Mount LeMasurier was named in his honor.

Dr. LeMasurier's work includes studying the origin and evolution of Cenozoic volcanic rocks, the nature of the tectonic environment of volcanism, and the volcanic record of glacial history. In 1990, after conducting a survey of Mount Berlin, he declared the volcano to be "potentially active." Later, in 1994, during field work around Mount Siple, Dr. LeMasurier knocked off a piece of rock from the mountain and sent it to Ruth Siple, the widow of Paul A. Siple, for whom the mountain was named.

-The Realm of Calsahara was a 120-acre micronation located near the tiny community of California Valley, California, just north of the Carrizo Plain National Monument, a protected natural area of the United States. It existed as an independent country starting 24 November 2009 and was ruled by various leaders, but at the time of the invasion, the monarch was [[Prince Daniel Nicholas|King Nicholas]], who had not visited his nation since 2011.
