Micro (Fake) Nations

[Autumn]

To me, this is very similar to the people who set up their "fake tribes," but not as sinister as the "sovereign citizens".

"It's almost like a diplomatic version of a model railroad for nerds," says Steven F. Scharff, who has been studying the micronation movement for decades.

Most of these faux countries print their own stamps and mint their own money. Some even produce sashes, swords, pendants and other royal doodads that Scharff says rival anything coming out of England's royal House of Windsor. Much of it will be on display Saturday, along with the flags of some two dozen countries.

It is sort of humorous, however, that they have organized and are having annual conferences.   ::) ::)
