Dorrel Rock is a rock outcrop 11 nautical miles (20 km) southwest of the summit of Mount Murphy, protruding through the ice near the head of Pope Glacier, on the Walgreen Coast in Westarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1959–66, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after Leo E. Dorrel, U.S. Navy, a hospital corpsman with the Byrd Station winter party, 1966. On 2 November 2018, Westarctica's Honorary Consul to Spain, Dr. Joachim Michael Adlfinger, was granted the Peerage title of Baron of Dorrel in recognition of his successful opening of Westarctica's consulate office in southern Spain.

-The '''[[Kingdom of Argonne]]''' is a miniature Kingdom that was established in 2019 as the '''Prince-Abbacy of Inselwald'''. Although the kingdom shares many characteristics of a [[micronation]], it does not generally consider itself to be a micronation and prefers the self-descriptive term ''miniature monarchy''.
+'''[[Dorrel Rock]]''' is a rock outcrop 11 nautical miles (20 km) southwest of the summit of [[Mount Murphy]], protruding through the ice near the head of [[Pope Glacier]], on the [[Walgreen Coast]] in [[Westarctica]]. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and [[U.S. Navy]] air photos, 1959–66, and was named by the Advisory Committee on [[Antarctic]] Names after Leo E. Dorrel, U.S. Navy, a hospital corpsman with the [[Byrd Station]] winter party, 1966. On 2 November 2018, Westarctica's [[Honorary Consular Corps|Honorary Consul]] to Spain, [[Baron of Dorrel|Dr. Joachim Michael Adlfinger]], was granted the [[Peerage of Westarctica|Peerage title]] of Baron of Dorrel in recognition of his successful opening of Westarctica's consulate office in southern Spain.
-Although there are a number of ties between Argonne and [[Westarctica]], none of them are formal. This is seen as being primarily due to the relative infancy of the Kingdom, with official [[Foreign relations of Westarctica|diplomatic ties]] very likely in the future. [[King James of Argonne|King James]] and [[Grand Duke Travis]] of Westarctica are personal friends, in addition to enjoying good relations with the [[Kingdom of Scone]] during the King's time on the Sconnish throne. The King also retains membership in multiple [[Orders of Westarctica|Westarctican orders]] from his time as King of Scone.
