 | | The USNS parts the list of unrecognized states into these divisions: alternative currencies, exile governments and royal houses, fantasies of film and television, literary fantasies, fantasies of video and role playing games, fantasies of private creations, local and communal currencies, micro nations, political secession and autonomy groups, rebel governments, Royal pretenders and miscellaneous. |
 | | Many unrecognized states have produced passports, stamps and currency and conferred titles and awards, all of which most outsiders have simply ignored. |
 | | Perhaps the most famous unrecognized state is Sealand, founded as a sovereign principality in 1967 in international waters, six miles off the eastern shores of Britain, according to the official Web site, www.sealandgov.com. |
