MicroCon 2017 marked the first meeting between representatives of the Kingdom of Talossa and [[Westarctica]], two nations with competing claims to territory in [[Marie Byrd Land]]. Although Talossa's claim pre-dates Westarctica's by several years, Westarctica's claim was made through legal channels and not simply "declared." In any case, neither nation has ever formally recognized the claims of the other. Prior to meeting at the summit, some members of Talossa's government had displayed open hostility to Westarctica in the form of online propaganda. In turn, [[Grand Duke Travis]] refused to formally acknowledge Talossa's existence as a [[sovereignty|sovereign]] nation. | MicroCon 2017 marked the first meeting between representatives of the [[Talossa|Kingdom of Talossa]] and [[Westarctica]], two nations with competing claims to territory in [[Marie Byrd Land]].

During the conference, the Grand Duke was introduced to Munditenens (Dien) Tresplet, the Royal Governor of Talossa's Pengöpäts Antarctic Territory. After lengthy discussion, the Royal Governor joined hands with [[Grand Duke Travis]] and Baron Omar Cisneros, the representative from [[Grand Duchy of Flandrensis|Flandrensis]], and agreed to peacefully resolve any conflicts concerning their competing [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] claims. | During the conference, the Grand Duke was introduced to Munditenens (Dien) Tresplet, the Royal Governor of Talossa's Pengöpäts Antarctic Territory.
