The European League of Micronations, also known as the ELM, is a micronational federal alliance made up of European micronations as well as micronations located outside Europe with territory in the continent. The alliance was founded by Knez Valuk II of the Pochehovan Knezdom on 28 November 2020 and at its peak had 14 member states from seven different European countries, with one located outside of the European continent but controlled by an ELM member.

The ELM has been involved in multiple wars and at one point, had it’s own peacekeeping force referred to as "The Yellow Bands".

On the 3rd of July, 2021, the ELM united into one nation, but after one month that union was dissolved.

Collapse

On the 27th of February 2024, the ELM collapsed as an alliance and split into three different organizations, this followed the February Crisis in which the new Pochehovan government tried to enact a land transfer with the Stravonskan Soviet Republic, the negotiations failed and the conflict caused Stravonska and the Reformed People's Republic to leave the organization and create its own similar alliance, called the International League of Micronations.

Restoration

On the 2nd of March 2024 the government of the Federal Republic of Moravskja and the newly independent State of Lyni restored the ELM as a Neutral buffer alliance between the conflicting ILM and SLM..

The Restoration has been criticized by the Slavic League of Micronations as it claims itself as the true successor to the ELM.
