Difference between revisions of "Slabovia"

'''Slabovia''' (also known as '''The United Slabovian Empire''') is a [[micronation]] founded (retroactively) by [[King George II of Slabovia|George Bragg]], Patrick Goddard, [[Chancellor Rankin MacGillivray|Rankin MacGillivray]], and David Yarker in the mid 1980's. Its origins can be traced to those ridiculous questions that teachers used to ask in early high school, like "an apple costs $3.50 in Outer Slabovia where the tax rate is 21%. What is the total tax payable on a baker's dozen of apples?" By grade 11 the founders had figured out that there was no Slabovia and set about creating one so that such questions could be contested (which never actually worked).
