Sealand In Ruins
from BoingBoing
There was a fire in the Principality of Sealand last week that was put out with the assistance of UK firefighters. The blaze took out their generator but the information systems were unaffected. A security guard named Chris was evacuated, temporarily bringing Sealand's population to zero. What does this mean for the sovereignty of Sealand?
According to a recent press release from Sealand's Bureau of Internal Affairs they are planning to rebuild. Damage is estimated at $1 million Sealand dollars. People can show their support by making a donation to the Sealand Disaster fund or contributing to their economy by becoming a Lord, Lady, Baron or Baroness for only $35.18 (American).
