Republic of Talossa
The Republic of Talossa was a micronation that existed from 1 June 2004/XXV to 2012/XXXIII. It was formed when a group of active citizens in the Kingdom grew dissatisfied with King Ben's efforts to maintain power. Taking control of the national web presence, they left the Kingdom and formed their own nation.
The exact terms of their departure remain under dispute; it has often been described as a "secession," but the Kingdom steadfastly disputed this terminology, maintaining that the "seceded" provinces remained firmly in their place. In may be fairly said, however, that much of this dispute lies in the nebulous nature of all Talossan territorial claims.
In 2012/XXXIII, the Republic ended as a separate entity, as its citizens returned to a Ben-free Kingdom, a process known as the Reunision. Their culture has been recognized as a valuable part of the Talossan heritage, and their citizens were instated with all honour in the new province of Fiovă.
