Landseofon, officially the Principality of Landseofon, is a constituent state of the Kingdom of Frisland. While Frisland is focused on oceanic pursuits and functions as a government-in-exile, Landseofon focuses on building communities on land and functions as an autonomous state.
Etymology
While other names were considered for the principality, Landseofon is what was ultimately chosen because it reflects the mission best of the names that were considered. The name Landseofon is derived from the Frislondisc words “land” and “seofon”, literally translating to “land” and “seven”, respectively, the words together translate to “continent”. The change from “Frislandisc” to “Frislondisc” is due to a linguistic phenomenon called “vowel rounding”. This name was chosen because it reflects Landseofon’s mission to build a better society on land, as opposed to Frisland’s oceanic mission.
History
The history of Landseofon is rooted in the history of Frisland. The predecessor state of Frisland was the Kingdom of Agoga, a micronation that had such a broad mission that it was spread too thin. The oceanic missions of Agoga were inherited by Frisland. While the mission of Frisland is certainly one that everyone in Landseofon agrees with, Prince Judah felt that it focused too much on the ocean at the expense of building a better society. The prince formed a plan for how to build what he felt was a better society than contemporary American society and presented his plan to King Andrew as an autonomous principality that was a constituent state of Frisland. On 4 April 2024, King Andrew signed the Landseofon Act[1], officially forming Landseofon with Prince Judah reigning over it as a hereditary monarch. With this act, Landseofon was formally founded and endorsed by King Andrew, it was only later that the two realised that this technically made Frisland an empire. Landseofon inherited Agoga’s land missions, the building of communities and usage of a commodity-backed currency.
Politics and government
Landseofon is a micronation that is a constituent state of the Kingdom of Frisland. Constitutionally, Landseofon is an autonomous, confederated principality within a constitutional monarchy. Its autonomy guarantees the right of self-governance, meaning that the government of Landseofon has the exclusive right to leadership of the principality within the legal framework of Frisland. The Head of State is the Crown of Frisland, while the Head of Government is the Crown of Landseofon. The Head of State has little actual authority in Landseofon because the Frislander government cannot, as a government-in-exile, exercise authority over a physical realm. The Head of Government has near complete authority in Landseofon, only submitting to Frislander rule when a law is passed for all Frislander realms.
Constitutionally, the people are represented in the government by the members of the Fyrstesborð (the Prince’s Council), nobles from each region within Landseofon are appointed to the Fyrstesborð to govern their respective regions and keep the Crown informed on what their regions need and the desires of the people. The Fyrstesborð has no legal authority, it only serves as an extension of the Crown since the Crown cannot personally effectively oversee every minor matter in every part of Landseofon. In order to effectively oversee the functions of the government, the Crown relies on the ministers of the Raðstefna (the Cabinet), which is led by a Prime Minister.
Goals
Landseofon has a stated goal of establishing communities that work toward greater degrees of self-reliance. This is accomplished by encouraging the production and sale of crops and goods. Other goals are bolstering local tourism, using a local, commodity-backed currency, and establishing a global presence. Landseofon accepts individuals, existing micronations, and small communities that feel a sense of unity with Landseofon’s mission and goals. Landseofon plans to establish duchies and municipalities within its borders.
