@the_micro_direc Does this include erstwhile and dormant micronations or only extant and active ones?

Only two #micronations have official football teams. The Sealand national football team was founded in 2004 & joined the N.F.-Board, a federation made up of unrecognised states not allowed in FIFA, in 2006. The Seborga national football team was founded in 2014. #micronation

The MicroWiki forums were launched in Dec 2010 and became the vocal point of said community. 2 years after its launch, the forums had received 58K posts in 2.9K threads—averaging 80 posts per day! After 2014, it became less active until being superseded by Discord in Sep 2018.

@iloveclubpengu9 Both the documentary and BBC series were based on Erwin S. Strauss' book of the same name, first published in 1979 and republished 1984 and 1999. Also, the 1999 edition is available for free on the Internet Archive if you might be interested!

One of the largest micronational forums of all time was the Portuguese-language "Impresa Livre," created in June 2001 by the Micronational Press Association (Associação Micronacional de Impresa). Before becoming spammed in the late 2000s, it had over 450 registered users.
