[edit] Dukedom of New Sealand

This article is semi-coherent nonsense - not a verifiable micronation. There was no "coup d'etat" in Sealand in 2002, and the claim that its "territory and geography are not exactly known" - despite consisting of a man-made island 300 km² in size in the South Atlantic, speaks volumes.

• Delete. Most mentions on the 'net of "New Sealand" are actually misspellings of "New Zealand." Among other things, this articleabout a planned reality show makes me strongly suspect that the article is a hoax. The part about David Duke is kind of a giveaway as well.
