-'''[[Siple Island]]''' is a 110 km long snow-covered island lying east of [[Wrigley Gulf]] along the [[Getz Ice Shelf]] off the [[Bakutis Coast]] of [[Westarctica]]. The island is dominated by the dormant shield volcano [[Mount Siple]], rising to 3,110 m (10,203 ft) – making this the 15th ranking island in the world by maximum elevation.
+His Royal Highness, '''[[Grand Duke Travis]]''' is the founder and current [[Grand Duke of Westarctica|Head of State]] of [[Westarctica]], a [[Micronations|micronation]], new country project, and environmental non-profit corporation.
-Siple Island has played an important part in Westarctica's history, having been one of the earliest areas to which a title in the [[Baronage]] was attached in 2004. It later became the focus of the [[Siple War]] waged between Westarctica and the [[Grand Duchy of Flandrensis]] during the first half of 2009.
+The Grand Duke has been involved with various micronations, and has founded three of his own, starting in 1996 with the [[Kingdom of Casbah]], then [[Westarctica]] in 2001, and finally [[Colony of Calsahara|Calsahara]] in 2009. In between these projects, he served as a governor for two provinces of [[Republic of Molossia|Molossia]].
-Both Siple Island and Mount Siple were named by the United States Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in 1967 in honor of the Antarctic explorer [[Paul A. Siple]] (1909–1968), who was a member of Admiral [[Richard Byrd]]'s expeditions throughout the [[Marie Byrd Land]] region of [[Antarctica]].
+June 4th, the Grand Duke's birthday, is celebrated as a [[Public Holidays in Westarctica|national holiday]].
