It wasn't until 30 October 2001 that McHenry wrote what would effectively be a declaration of independence for the Achaean Territory of Antarctica. After purchasing special watermarked stationary paper, McHenry composed the [[Claimant Letter]] on 29 - 30 October. | It wasn't until 30 October 2001 that McHenry wrote what would effectively be a declaration of independence for the Achaean Territory of Antarctica.
