"A micronation, sometimes referred to as a model country or new country project, is an entity that claims to be an independent nation or state but is not officially recognized by world governments or major international organizations." -- From the Wikipedia article at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micronation
Ever wanted to start your own country? Interested in politics? Now's your chance.
For awhile now, I've been toying with the idea of making an exclusively-online micronation/model country themed around YouTube. Recently, two YouTube-related posts over on the General Talk board here on Support brought me back to my idea and I decided to create the board. This is basically a role-play, but people involved in this take it very seriously and not as an RP.
Even though I have two pages of ideas for this YouTube micronation, I am very open to the idea of the community to create the micronation from scratch (despite part of the name I came up with originally is in the URL of the board).
The first thing that needs to be done is to set up this micronation's government. It could be a kingdom, a dictatorship or a constitutional republic like my real life homeland, the United States of America. We are also in need of political parties.
Right now, I've created a General board to discuss how we shall build this micronation. A sub-board has been created to introduce yourself.
I am opening this board to YouTubers and people who aren't members, but watch YouTube videos even once in awhile. People who are also interested in this adventure, but are not a YouTuber or watches videos on the site will be considered tourists.
I will be bumping this thread myself until a second-in-command (ie Vice-President) is voted into office and will be responsible for this thread.
