No longer on the map

Ever wanted to start your own country? You and a lot of other people. The Footnotes to History site lists numerous nations and states that tried to get off the ground but never quite made it. Take a look at some of the attempts, such as the Free State of Jones, the Welsh colony in Argentinia, and the unlikely Greco-Polish Republic.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
