-The '''[[West-Antarctic Treaty]]''' is a major treaty signed by seven rival [[micronations]] who were all claimants to overlapping territories in the [[Marie Byrd Land]] region of [[Antarctica]].
+The '''[[Canterbury Spur]]''' is a flat-topped ridge leading north from the north face of [[Mount Glossopteris]], 1.3 nautical miles (2.4 km) east of Discovery Ridge in the [[Ohio Range]].
-In June 2010, after a participating in a [[Siple War|prolonged conflict]] with a group of rival micronations led by the [[Grand Duchy of Flandrensis]], the ruler of [[Westarctica]], [[Grand Duke Jon-Lawrence]], was [[The Great Return|removed from power in a coup]] and replaced by [[Grand Duke Travis|Travis McHenry]] and [[Duke of Waesche|Wolf Tulier]], the newly-proclaimed [[Prime Minister of Westarctica]].
+It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from [[U.S. Navy]] aerial photographs taken during the 1958–59 season. The spur is named after the Canterbury Museum, Christchurch, New Zealand, which is home of the National [[Antarctic]] Exhibition's Research and Reference Center. Geologists Jane Newman and Margaret Bradshaw of the Canterbury Museum worked on this ridge during the 1984–85 field season.
-On 24 September 2010, representatives from all parties signed the treaty. [[Duke of Waesche|Prime Minister Tulier]] signed on behalf of [[Westarctica]], however after all signatures were received, [[Grand Duke Travis]] also added his name to the treaty in a show of solidarity with the terms. The signing of the treaty was announced in the [[Supreme Diet]] as part of the 2010 Rainbow Tour of diplomacy.
+On 31 July 2018, Jenny Jordan was made a [[Peerage of Westarctica|Life Peer]] with the title Viscountess of Canterbury. Her title is named for Canterbury Spur. She was the first Life Peer ever created in the Peerage of Westarctica.
