-The '''[[Backer Islands]]''' are a chain of small islands at the south side of [[Cranton Bay]]. The islands trend northwest for 22 kilometers (12 nmi) from the [[ice shelf]] which forms the southern limit of the bay. They were mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and from [[U.S. Navy]] air photos, 1960–66, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Walter K. Backer, a U.S. Navy chief construction mechanic at [[Byrd Station]] in 1967.
+Her Majesty, '''[[Queen Anastasia of Ruritania|Queen Anastasia Sophia Maria Helena von Rubenroth Elphberg of Ruritania]]''' is the monarch of the [[Kingdom of Ruritania]], a [[micronation]] based in Stone Mountain, Georgia.
-In 2011, scientists from the POLar Earth-observing NETwork (POLENET) traveled to the Backer Islands via a Twin Otter aircraft and installed a GPS monitoring site. This equipment is used to remotely monitor GPS and seismic data that will help scientists determine trends in ice sheet movement and other geophysical phenomena.
+After ascending the throne in 2010, Queen Anastasia drastically altered the course of Ruritania's history by pursuing an aggressive outreach to other unrecognized nations. In a few short years, Ruritania gathered a large collection of allies and undertook a state visit to the [[Republic of Molossia]] in 2013. These acts of diplomacy culminated in 2017 when Ruritania co-hosted the second biennial [[MicroCon]] in Atlanta, Georgia. As host of [[MicroCon 2017]], the Queen and her daughters organized three days of activities and events for delegates visiting from all over the world.
