The Austenasian Decennalia Chess Tournament was an Austenasian chess tournament that took place between January and February, 2023. The tournament was arranged by the Austenasian government to celebrate the decennalia of Austenasian Emperor Jonathan I, following his being on the throne of Austenasia for ten years. It is the third largest micronational chess tournament recorded by MicroWiki, after the 2013 and 2012 instalments of the World Micronational Chess Championship, organised by the now defunct Inter-Micronational Chess Federation.
The chess tournament had twelve participants, including the Emperor himself, Isaiah I of Burdette, Horatio Eden, Shiro Mephistopheles, Miles B Huff and Lady Addison O'Halloran among others. The tournament took place over two rounds: a free-for-all, where all players played five matches, followed by multiple matches streamed into two classes. Players were routed into classes depending on their performance in the free-for-all, proficient and intermediate.
Lady Addison O'Halloran won the proficient class of the tournament, defeating Horatio Eden in the final match of the class, while Shiro Mephistopheles won the intermediate class. Three players were eliminated during the free-for-all for not completing the required number of matches.
