After the reformation of the Grand Duchy into a protectorate in October 2010, on the advice of the [[Transitional Government]], Grand Duke Travis reduced the Westarctican claim in order to join the [[Antarctic Micronational Union]] and recognize other micronational claims in Western Antarctica. This decision was made official after the signing of the [[West-Antarctic Treaty]]. | After the reformation of the Grand Duchy into a protectorate in October 2010, on the advice of the [[Transitional Government]], Grand Duke Travis reduced the Westarctican claim in order to join the [[Antarctic Micronational Union]] and recognize other micronational claims in Western Antarctica.
