> What Is Westarctica?
Travis McHenry, an officer in the US Navy, founded 'Westarctica' in 2001 and later appointed himself its Grand Duke. Located in Antarctica, Westarctica has an area of 620,000 square miles and McHenry used a loophole in the Antarctic Treaty System to appoint himself the ruler. While the treaty prohibits countries from laying claim to parts of Antarctica, it says nothing about private individuals. Westarctica claims it has 2,356 citizens -- none of them live there. Based in southern California, the Grand Duchy of Westarctica functions as a non-profit that spreads awareness about climate change and Antarctica. It has its own flag, currency and also issues titles that no government recognises.
