King of Your Own Castle (No, Really)

Like the old saying goes, it's good to be the king. For most of us, we're not born of royal blood, so we don't get to walk around acting like we own the place. But for an intrepid few, they just declare themselves a king or queen of their own damn country and leave it at that. As long as you don't care about pesky UN-recognition or anything trivial like that, you're golden. Make your own stamp! Wear a silly uniform! Declare your dog the head of state! If you're not brazen enough to start your own country, read this book from Lonely Planet on how to visit the many wacky micronations around the world. And if you are interested in starting your own, enter this competition to see who has the best idea.
