Micronations: Invent Your Own Country and Culture With 25 Projects

ByKathy Ceceri

For anyone who’s ever dreamed of ruling over their own empire, here’s your chance! Micronations are imaginary countries that have a lot of the same things as real ones: laws, customs, history—even their own flags, coins, and postage stamps. Micronations: Invent Your Own Country and Culture takes readers step-by-step to create their own unique realm, using examples from real nations, micronations, and fictional lands. What makes a country a country? What symbols and systems define a country and help it function? Learn about geography and government, technology and the environment, art and culture, and the literary device of “world-building” used in works like The Hobbit, Harry Potter, and the videogame I. Activities show readers how to create authentic-looking artifacts and documents such as maps, currency, passports, and a constitution. Kids get to invent their own language, music, games, clothing, food, and holidays to fit their micronation’s traditions.
