To be included in this list, a micronation must be able to demonstrate that it has been in existence for a minimum of 12 months. Micronations whose members publicly advocate the prosecution of acts of criminality will not be listed.

Website link:

If the micronation is active or inactive, a link to its website is provided.

If the micronation is defunct, a link is provided to the following: (i) an archived version of the micronation's website - or if that does not exist, (ii) the relevant Wikipedia article about the micronation - or if that does not exist, (iii) a report about the micronation published by a reliable print media source.

Email:

If the micronation lists an email address on its website, it is linked with an .

If the micronation has no published email address, and only allows form-based communication via its website, no email address is listed.

Primary contact:

For active micronations, the primary contact is the founder or current leader - whichever is most relevant.

For inactive or defunct micronations, the primary contact is the founder or last known leader.

The name of the primary contact is their actual legal name; false names, pseudonymous identities and assumed styles and titularies are not listed.

If the primary contact has a known publicly-listed telephone number, it is listed below their name.

If the primary contact is known to be deceased, the entry is marked with a

Where information is uncertain or unknown, it is marked with a ?

Contact location:

The contact location is the primary contact's most recent known primary place of residence.

Where information is uncertain or unknown, it is marked with a ?

Physical territory claimed:

If the micronation maintains claims over one or more pieces of physical geography on Earth or on planets, planetoids, natural satellites, asteroids or other heavenly bodies elsewhere in the universe, the entry is marked with a .

If the micronation does not maintain any such claim, the entry is marked with a .

Physical territory owned / occupied / controlled:

If the micronation maintains claims over one or more pieces of physical geography on Earth or on planets, planetoids, natural satellites, asteroids or other heavenly bodies elsewhere in the universe and shows credible evidence that it, or one or more of its members physically owns, occupies and otherwise exercises control over the territory in question, the entry is marked with a .

If the micronation does not physically own, occupy and otherwise exercise control over the territory which it claims, the entry is marked with a .

If the micronation physically owns, occupies and controls part of the territory it claims, the entry is marked with a if the area under its control is less than or equal to 50% of the claim, and if it is 51% or greater of the claim.

Status:

Active = the micronation's website has been updated within the previous 12 months, or offline activity is credibly known to have occurred.

Inactive = there is no credible evidence of online or offline activity by the micronation in the previous 12 months, but its domain and website remain registered and publicly accessible, and there is a credible reason to believe that this indicates a willingness or intent on the part of those involved to revive the project at some future juncture.

Defunct = the micronation has entirely ceased to exist. There is no credible evidence of online or offline activity of any sort in the previous 12 months, and no credible reason to assume this is likely to change. Alternatively, those involved in creating or maintaining it have announced the termination of the project, are credibly known to be no longer involved, or are no longer contactable. If the micronation possessed a website, that site may still be publicly accessible by default (ie without the need for human intervention) - but it is more likely than not to now only be accessible via third party archives, or not at all.
