The '''[[Summit Upon the Seas]]''' is a [[Foreign relations of Westarctica|diplomatic summit]] that occurred between the [[micronation]]s of [[Westarctica]], the [[Republic of Molossia]], and the [[Kingdom of Shiloh]] onboard the ''Carnival Imagination'' cruise ship in international waters and Ensenada, Mexico from 21 - 24 October 2018.
The '''[[Whitmore Mountains]]''' are an isolated mountain range of the Transantarctic Mountains System, located in the [[Marie Byrd Land]] region of [[Westarctica]].


On the second day of the cruise, the attendees of the summit dressed in their official uniforms and finery for the 6:00pm dinner where [[Grand Duke Travis]] gave a champagne toast to commemorate the 10th Anniversary of the [[Kingdom of Shiloh]]. Immediately following dinner, the Heads of State departed for a meeting with the captain of the vessel, Giuseppe Strano, who took a moment from his busy schedule to receive the visiting leaders.
They consist of three small mountains and a cluster of [[nunatak]]s arranged in a semicircular pattern extending over 15 miles. The group was visited and surveyed on January 2, 1959, by William H. Chapman, cartographer with the [[Horlick Mountains]] Traverse Party. The mountains were named by Chapman for George D. Whitmore, Chief Topographic Engineer of the United States Geological Survey (USGS), who was a member of the Working Group on Cartography of the Scientific Committee on [[Antarctic]] Research.

The first title created in the [[Peerage of Westarctica]] was "Duke of Whitmore." However, after the initial structure of the nobility was modified in 2004, the title was reduced to [[Viscount of Whitmore]]. It has remained that way ever since, and the current Viscount has held that title continuously since 15 November 2015.
