"The Republic of Rantburgia"
2007-01-10
OK friends, it's time to select a name, flag, governing system, and of course motto for Rantburg's new Fortress of Solitude and Bourbon Tastings. Don't forget to hit the tip jar so Fred can put up the down payment! Shall Fred be a constitutional monarch, a bloody handed tyrant, or that guy in the basement nobody ever mentions? Should he dress more like Muammar Qadaffy or Pervez Musharraf? Who will head up our United Nations delegation?
A former World War II fort in the North Sea, which was settled 40 years ago and declared a state with its own self-proclaimed royal family, is up for sale, the Times said on Monday. The tiny Principality of Sealand, which began life as Roughs Tower in 1941, is a 550 square metre steel platform perched on two concrete towers 11km off the coast of Harwich, eastern England.
