The '''[[southern giant petrel]]''' (''Macronectes giganteus''), also known as the '''Antarctic giant petrel''', and '''stinkpot''', is a large seabird of the [[Southern Ocean]]. Its distribution overlaps broadly with the similar northern giant petrel, though it overall is centered slightly further south. Adults of the two species can be distinguished by the color of their bill-tip: greenish in the southern and reddish in the northern.
The '''[[Principality of Aigues-Mortes]]''' is a [[micronation]] created to promote and support local initiatives of the eponymous city, located in Southern France, 23km east of Montpellier. The Princely Couple (His Serene Highness, Sovereign-Prince Jean-Pierre IV and Her Serene Highness, Princess Olivia-Eugénie) work together with the citizens and the Princely Grand Council, to create and organize events that are both fun and windows of local talents and creativity.


The range of this bird is quite large as it ranges from [[Antarctica]] to the subtropics of Chile, Africa, and Australia, and has an occurrence range of 36,000,000 km2 (14,000,000 sq mi). It breeds on numerous islands throughout the [[Southern Ocean]]. The islands with larger populations include the Falkland Islands, South Georgia, South Orkney Islands, Staten Island, South Shetland, Heard Island, Macquarie Island, the Prince Edward Islands, and the Crozet Islands.
During [[MicroCon 2025]], it was announced that the Principality of Aigues-Mortes would serve as host of [[MicroCon EU 2027]].
