Drawn to small places with improbable histories, photographer Léo Delafontaine could be described as a modern day explorer. Upon the discovery of the Principality of Sealand, a military platform situated on international waters, with a population of four and ruled by a constitutional monarchy, he knew this would be the start of a new documentary project. After some research he realized these independent entities, or Micronations, are not an isolated phenomenon and many other similar nations exist throughout the world.
These people have declared their own nations for themselves.

There's a self-declared micronation 7 miles off the coast of Suffolk...who knew?
You’d be forgiven for writing off micronations as gimmicks--some of these self-declared independent nations entirely unrecognized by global governments totally are. But don’t go conflating them with places like Palestine or Tibet which are recognized by vast swathes of political society, or teeny-tiny sovereign microstates like Vatican City or Monaco. Some micronations, however, have been created in good faith by well-meaning individuals looking to create their own utopia on supposedly unclaimed land, and there are even a few that arose out of disputes. From Shetland to the Southern Hemisphere, micronations are scattered the length and breadth of the world. Here are just some of the weirdest, most notorious and fascinating examples.
Photographer Léo Delafontaine is visiting micronations throughout the US, Europe, and Australia, and this is what he has found so far.
