In October 2017, [[Grand Duke Travis]] was making preparations for the [[Invasion of Calsahara|liberation of Calsahara]], a sovereign [[micronation]] in central California. As he began to recruit for his invasion force, he realized the unit would require a name. As the soldiers were expected to answer directly to the Crown and were primarily a defensive unit, the Grand Duke chose the name "Westarctican Royal Guards." | In October 2017, [[Grand Duke Travis]] was making preparations for the [[Invasion of Calsahara|liberation of Calsahara]], a sovereign [[micronation]] in central California.
