The New Falklands are an "archipelago" of small rocks which is a dependency of Cézembre.

According to The History of the Kingdom of Talossa:

Soon after their arrival in St Malo on 6 August [1982/III], Talossan King Robert I and [Frédéric] Maugey swam out to a few off-shore rocks and partitioned this "archipelago" between them, Talossa naming its 10 square foot conquest the 'New Falklands.'

The name of the islands is a reference to the Falkland Islands, which had been prominently features in international news during that period; the Falklands War between Great Britain and Argentina over the sovereignty of the islands began a month prior to the annexation of the New Falklands.
