Atlantium, Micronation in New South Wales, Australia
The Empire of Atlantium is a micronation located in New South Wales, situated about 350 kilometers southwest of Sydney. The territory near Boorowa contains administrative buildings and ceremonial spaces that serve as the seat of its government.
The micronation was established in 1981 by three teenagers from Sydney, beginning with a tiny territory in Narwee as their first capital. Over time, the project expanded and relocated to its current site in the Province of Aurora.
The realm fosters a community centered on freethinking principles and intellectual exploration. Visitors encounter a place where its founders reimagine how a society might operate through creative self-governance.
Access to the territory is easiest during special events and celebrations organized by the founders throughout the year. It helps to check in advance about scheduled occasions, as the site is not always open to the public.
The realm issues its own currency, the Imperial Solidus, and operates a complete system including stamps and official representatives around the world. These elements reveal how seriously the founders execute their creative project in practice.
