The idea of starting a micronation was fun, and I wanted to give it a try, so I started this. I have no plans on making thing a sovereign state as of now, but if it comes to it, I may try to.

I have looked into claiming land in Antarctica or one of the thousands of abandoned oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico.
