The following article gives the background of a little-known micronation right here in North America, the Republic of Molossia. A happy Independence Day to President Kevin Baugh!

Sierra Leone called. They want their upside-down flag righted and returned post haste.

This reminds me of something out of Manalive by G.K. Chesterton:
"You believe in Home Rule for Ireland; I believe in Home Rule for homes," he cried eagerly to Michael. "It would be better if every father could kill his son, as with the old Romans—it would be better, because nobody would be killed.

That last line sounds purely whimsical at first. The more I think about it, though, the more truth I see in it.
