The Principality of Sealand is a micronation located on HM Fort Roughs, a former World War II Maunsell Sea Fort in the North Sea 10 km (six miles) off the coast of Suffolk, England, United Kingdom.

Since 1967, the facility has been occupied by former radio broadcaster British Army Major Paddy Roy Bates; his associates and family claim that it is an independent sovereign state.[2] External commentators generally classify Sealand as a micronation. It has been described as the world's best-known micronation.


The Principality of Seborga is a micronation located in the northwestern Italian region of Liguria, near the French border, and in sight of Monaco. The principality is coexistent with, and claims the territory of, the town of Seborga which is an Italian municipality. Unlike most micronations, Seborga possesses an undisputed history as a feudal state.
