An ambitious micronation is by definition, "one which stacks the odds in its favour, Cesidio Tallini be damned!" micronations.wikia.com/wiki/Sixth_World_MicronationI hope that after reading the wiki page above you hit the floor laughing, but you have to admit that the Prime Minister of Voltar is quite a character, LOL!

My analysis is that the creator of Voltar is very likely a 12 year-old Liverpudlian schoolboy with no assets or money, nor any meaningful experience of the real world outside the schoolyard gates.
He is of no consequence, and will likely remain so for a number of years into the future.
NEXT!

Heyla,
Couldn't the "wiki" writer at least spell anything correctly ----- like "micronation," for example? [Silence ensues......] Guess not.

I gotta say I do find it rather amusing when functionally illiterate teen micronationalists demand to be treated with the sort of deference normally reserved for presidents and monarchs.

At least they have some creativity and so potential for growth in the future, when you see the same sort of funcitonal illiteracy with a stubborn refusal to learn coming from adults it is down right sickening (and all too common in the US).

The whole wiki is full of micronations I've never heard of before. It's as if I've stumbled upon some portal to new worlds!

The great thing about kids (the fortunate ones, at least) is that they haven't yet had to face the harsh realities of life, so their micronational flights of fancy can be long and highly inventive. when you see the same sort of funcitonal illiteracy with a stubborn refusal to learn coming from adults it is down right sickening (and all too common in the US). Who ever do you mean? ;D

I've been actively studying and documenting the phenomenon for over 30 years, and I'm still stumbling across substantive historic micronations I've never heard of before. It's an infinitely fascinating subject.
