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.

-The South Magnetic Pole is constantly shifting due to changes in the Earth's magnetic field. As of 2005 it was calculated to lie at 64°31′48″S 137°51′36″E, placing it off the coast of [[Antarctica]], between [[Adélie Land]] and [[Wilkes Land]]. In 2015 it lay at 64.28°S 136.59°E (est). That point lies outside the [[Antarctic Circle]].
