The '''[[Colony of Calsahara|Westarctican Colony of Calsahara]]''' is a dependent colony of [[Westarctica]] located entirely within the U.S. state of California near the unincorporated community of California Valley on the [[Carrizio Plain]]. Calsahara was founded by [[Grand Duke Travis|Travis McHenry]] on 24 November 2009, and existed as an independent sovereign state until it was conquered without resistance during the [[Invasion of Calsahara]] by the [[Westarctican Royal Guards]] on 29 October 2017. All laws of Calsahara were overturned and replaced with the [[Article of Eternal Union]], which established Grand Duke Travis as Overlord of Calsahara and made the territory an eternal colony of [[Westarctica]].

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.
