The Empire of Wellington, shortly titled Wellington, is a self-declared sovereign state based in the continent of North America in Canada. Its claim as a sovereign state is disregarded by external observers and is commonly referred to as a micronation.

The Empire of Wellington was founded on August 22, 2019. It aims to not display any forms of hostility to the nation that the United Nations recognizes that it is within, Canada.

History

On the day of August 22, 2019, the Empire of Wellington was founded by Zebrin I. There was a provisional legislature and government established immediately, and the duties of the Head of Government, later established as the Chancellor, was assumed by the Monarch until one was decided upon. On August 1 of 2021, it was declared by the Emperor of Wellington, Zebrin I, that the goal of the nation is more-so Simulationist then to achieve actual, genuine independence.

The Kingdom of Wellington is an Absolute Monarchy that is governed by the Monarch of the Empire of Wellington. The sitting head of state is responsible for appointing a head of government, and, in the event of a vacancy, may appoint them or any member of their royal house as the provisional head of government.
