His Serene Highness, '''[[Prince Christopher]]''', formerly '''King Christopher''', was the ruler of the [[Kingdom of Vikesland]], a 400+ acre former [[micronation]] located in Manitoba, Canada. The Prince is descended from the Noble houses of France in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, notably Guillaume, Seigneur de la Paumeliere and Guillaume II, Seigneur de Nevi. His ancestors were French Lords before they were deposed during the Massacre of Huguenots in 1572 and fled to Holland. He is currently seeking reinstatement of the Noble title of his ancestors.
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.


On 12 December 2019, after several months of speculation that the former king would be offered a title, the Grand Duke issued Letters Patent elevating Christopher to the rank of noble prince with the title Prince Christopher, Duke of Hudson. His title is derived from the [[Hudson Mountains]].
