There is a long, proud tradition of '''[[United States Navy]]''' involvement in the exploration and governance of both [[Westarctica]] and the entire continent of [[Antarctica]]. Pictured here is the USS ''Kearsarge'', a U.S. Navy amphibious assault ship that was home to many of Westarctica's nobles from 2001 - 2004. | |||
[[Grand Duke Travis]] was onboard the USS ''Kearsarge'' (LHD-3) when he discovered the existence of [[Marie Byrd Land]]. Much of the [[Achaean Civil Code]] and [[Achaean Royal Charter]] were written onboard the same ship. During his late nights while standing 24-hour duty onboard the ''Kearsarge'', Travis discovered and researched other [[micronation]]s through the [[MicroFreedom]] Index. | |||
