You have been sentenced to life in a micronation of your choosing (Sealand, Molossia, etc.) The micronation must have actual land and you may never leave that land. What micronation do you choose?
Edit: clarification of the rules. A micronation is by definition not recognized internationally. As a result, small sovereign states like the Vatican are not allowed.
Also you can’t just make your own micronation wherever you want. It has to already exist.

This kind of makes the concept of a micronation useless. The point is that anyone can make their own nation with their own rules wherever they are or go. If you have to pick someone else’s, then it’s no different than picking someone else’s recognized nation.
I’d have a couple of options:
Most Serene Federal Republic of Montmartre
This republic, retroactively dated to 1636, encompasses the Theater District in the borough of Manhattan, in New York City. In the late 1970s, a dispute between Montmartre’s founder and New York Telephone, over whether the micronation could be listed in the government pages of the phone book, ended up in front of the New York Public Service Commission. The commission vacillated, alternately issuing rulings in favour of each party, and listings for the republic did appear in at least a few editions of the New York Telephone book.
All of life is basically a series of interlocking musicals, and I’d aim for some ministerial position. I’d like to work for the Idina Menzel administration.
Nation of Pacifica/Cascadia
This one isn’t on the Wikipedia page for some reason, but it’s a pretty active concept.
It’s basically the west coast states and territories, ranging from British Columbia to Baja California, with the idea of being some contiguous subset of those areas. I’d just want to make sure it includes the Bay Area and LA.
Cascadia/Pacifica would be my choice, I’m already in the borders of either one, and economically either would be a powerful nation, with decent politics
Monaco, no brainer.
Never seen so many bucks per square meter.
You’ll starve to death sorrounded by cheap food that cost a thousand euros to look at.
Luxembourg is awesome. Easy pick
Luxembourg is not a micronation
I visited Molossia a while ago, dude was awesome and super friendly. Plus the weather in Molossia is always perfect, although with the close borders with Nevada sometimes the bad weather from the US bleeds in.
The Other World, Czech Republic: “A BDSM resort specializing in female dominance, located in a château in Černá, Žďár nad Sázavou District, claims to be an independent matriarchy.”
This post is assuming I know what the fuck that is or what one is. I choose Petoria
The one with the fastest internet.
Are there any good ones? Am I allowed to launch a coup?
You can launch a coup.
Well Jämtland is Jämtland, but there is nothing wrong with that one. Really nice place, the biggest town is lovely, if you don’t like the city ther is plenty of smaller towns, villages and cabins in the woods. They even have there own famous lake monster.
I would recommend against the coup, but if you gave your mind set you can probably find some new friends there to help you.
Does the Vatican count?
Lichtenstein or Andorra
They are both internationally recognized countries, no different than Germany or the US.
I said that before they edited prohibiting recognized nations. I just thought of it as really small country, but then I guess a obvious answer is Singapore.
New Freeland.
Can I afford it if I choose some place like Monaco?
No guarantees on money but you can’t leave. Also Monaco doesn’t count because it’s a city state and is internationally recognized.
K fine, SeaLand but it better have internet and proper food. Also I’m bringing my pets and Imma need AmazonPrime and all the credit I can eat
Pitcairn
Do you like inbreeding and sexual abuse?
Not really, but it wouldn’t be inbreeding if I’m an immigrant there (by definition). I take the second thing with a grain of history; before the UK decimated the place by issuing a war draft and taking everyone to go fight in WWII, it had as many people as a regular small American town, and what followed was a chain of sensationalism.
