Cosa
Cosa was a
Latin colonia founded under
Roman influence in southwestern
Tuscany in
273 BC, perhaps on land confiscated from the
Etruscans (
Velleius Paterculus 1.14.7;
Livy Periochae 14;
Strabo 5.2.8). The
Etruscan site (called Cusi or Cosia) may have been where modern
Orbetello stands; a fortification wall in
polygonal masonry at Orbetello's lagoon may be in phase with the walls of Cosa. The position of Cosa is distinct, rising some 113 meters above sea level and is sited 140 km northwest of
Rome on the
Tyrrhenian Sea coast, on a hill near the small town of
Ansedonia. The town experienced a hard life and was never truly a prosperous Roman city, although it has assumed a position of dominance in Roman archaeology owing to the circumstances of its excavation (cf. Dyson 2005, below). After the foundation, wars of the 3rd century BC affected the town (
Livy 22.11.6; 27.10.8-9; 32.2.7; 33.24.8-9). Cosa seems to have prospered until it was sacked in the 60s BC, perhaps by pirates. This led to a re-foundation under
Augustus and then life continued until the 3rd century. One of the last textual references to Cosa comes from the work of
Rutilius Claudius Namatianus in his De reditu suo. In the passage 1.285-90, Rutilius remarks that by 416 the site of Cosa was deserted and could be seen to be in ruins. He further suggests that a plague of mice had driven the people of Cosa away.

Talossa
Talossa is the name of two
micronations - the Kingdom of Talossa and the Republic of Talossa. Talossa was founded as a kingdom on
December 26,
1979 by Robert Ben Madison, a 13 year-old resident of
Milwaukee, shortly after the death of his mother. At that time the kingdom occupied Madison's bedroom, and he adopted the name "Talossa" for it after discovering that the word means "inside the house" in
Finnish. Over the years, Talossa's territorial claims expanded from Madison's childhood bedroom to encompass most of Milwaukee's
East Side, as well as the French island of
Cézembre and a large chunk of
Antarctica (called Pengopäts, which means Penguin-land in the
Talossan language).

Mikronation
Als Mikronationen werden Gebilde bezeichnet, welche nur den Anschein erwecken, ein eigenständiger
souveräner Staat zu sein. Von international anerkannten souveränen Staaten werden Mikronationen nicht als Staaten betrachtet und ihre Staatshandlungen, und damit auch alle ausgestellten Urkunden und Dokumente gelten als unwirksam. Die Rechtsprechung geht ganz überwiegend davon aus, dass sie die Voraussetzungen nach
Völkerrecht und der
Allgemeinen Staatslehre nur teilweise oder gar nicht erfüllen.

Micronazione
Una micronazione è un'entità creata da una persona, o da un piccolo numero di persone, che pretende di essere considerata come nazione o stato indipendente. Recentemente alcune micronazioni si sono definite quinto mondo, probabilmente in senso polemico in relazione alla nota scala economica che classifica le nazioni del mondo in
primo,
secondo e
terzo mondo.

Micronacionalismo
Micronacionalismo, País-Modelismo ou Simulação de País é um dos
hobbies que lidam com simulações de
países. O Micronacionalismo é uma atividade tão antiga quanto a própria
política, se considerarmos que as primeiras comunidades humanas começaram exatamente da mesma forma que as micronações: um grupo de pessoas que se une para formar uma organização social que mais tarde levará a um Estado.
