The State of Lasetia, commonly known as Lasetia, and formerly known as the State of Lasetania and Lasetania, is a self-proclaimed sovereign state, more commonly referred to as a Micronation by external observers. Located in middle of Germany and Slovakia it is landlocked almost completely within Bielefeld ,Germany and Trenćin, Slovakia. Lasetia is a federal republic with Maximilian IB. as the head of the state or the President. It was founded 10 March 2023 by the democratic elected president, and 20 people officially live in Lasetia.The capital of Lasetia is Königshalbtern. The Legislature of Lasetia is the National Council or the President. The Executive is the Lasetian National Army and Judikative is the Lasetian National Council. Lasetia is divided into four Districts and two Territories from which are five located in Germany. Every subdivision is represented by a Gouverneur or a Gouvernerate, and those meet in the Council of Gouverneurs discussing the status of the Districts. The main income of the state are taxes, which are paid voluntarily and ticket sales from the Lasetische Verkehrs Verband (Lasetian Traffic Alliance) for delivery and transportation. Lasetia´s public transport consist of 10 commuter connections and 8 long-distance connections.
The history of the region now constituting the State of Lasetia dates back to its inclusion in the city of Bielefeld and later in the principality of Ravensberg during the Middle Ages. Ravensberg, though independent, was part of the Holy Roman Empire and later became part of Prussia in the 18th century until the end of World War II. From 1843 to 1972, Lasetia was administratively linked to Amt Dornberg, and in 1973, Dornberg was incorporated into the City of Bielefeld.
The modern era of Lasetia began in 2023 when Max IB., developed an interest in Micronations. On March 11, 2023, he declared independence, initiating the expansion of territory and the establishment of the state structure. The first government was elected on the same day and, despite low political activity, successfully completed its term without resignations. The Lasetian Administrative Territory was established on March 14 under the New Rubix Republic but declared independence on March 15 due to dissatisfaction.
The democratic, political landscape is characterized by the dominant Central Reformer Party of Lasetia (CRPL) due to the small population. The second government was elected on August 11, 2023, with CRPL winning 80% of the votes. Maximilian IB. serves as the head of state with 100% of the votes. The legislative body comprises the National Council and the President, with the President having the authority to dissolve the National Council in a state of emergency. New citizens can join only through invitation by the President or the Ministry of Immigration and Colonization.
Etymology
The name "Lasetia" was made up by Maximilian IB. 11 March 2023 and was changed from Lasetania (Lasetanien to Lasetia (Lasetien. The full name is officially the State of Lasetia or the Free State of Lasetia which is rarely used. The name is originated from the Swedish word lasta which means load up so in combination it means The load up State which refers to an active and strong nation which is able to defend itself. So Lasetia´s foundation started already with Militarism which is shaped until today.
The Lasetian Flag
The colors on the Lasetian flag have a meaning. Blue stands for the sky and for prosperity, yellow for the wheat fields located next to their home and progress. Black stands for elegance and dominance of the government. The yellow hand in the white circle stand for the democracy and the power of the state. The wreath represents the wheat, which is located next to Maximilian IB. home.
History
Germany 1949-2023
Lasetian Adminstritave Territory 2023
State of Lasetia 2023–present
Most of the time in history the State of Lasetia was included in the city of Bielefeld and in the middle ages in the principality of Ravensberg. In the Middle Ages the principality of Ravensberg was independent but included in the Holy Roman Empire. It became a part of Prussia in the 1700s and stayed until the end of Wold War 2. But it was included in Dornbergfrom 1843-1972. In 1973 Dornberg was incorporated into the City of Bielefeld.
The Founding Era (2023)
The Founding Era of Lasetia began in early 2023, when Max von Lasetien. became interested in the concept of micronations. After researching how to establish a sovereign country, he decided to pursue the creation of Lasetia. On 11 March 2023, Maximilian IB. declared the formation of the State of Lasetia, marking the official beginning of the nation.
At the time of its founding, Lasetia had no defined territory and consisted of only three citizens, with Maximilian IB. assuming the role of both President and Minister in various government posts due to the small population. The first Lasetian government was formed on the same day, with Maximilian IB. winning the presidency under the banner of the CRPL party, the only political party in the country at the time. The National Council was also established, though it remained largely inactive due to the limited number of citizens and active political figures. Alexander IB. and Victoria IK. were appointed to other ministerial positions, but much of the governance was handled by Maximilian IB.
On the evening of 11 March 2023, at 20:30 MET, Lasetia declared its independence from Germany and the city of Bielefeld, where it had been historically linked. Initially, Lasetia did not claim any territory, and its sovereignty was more symbolic than practical. The state's early focus was on establishing its autonomy while avoiding conflict with its much larger neighbor, Germany. Lasetia adopted a stance of peaceful co-existence, aiming to be as autonomous and independent as possible without provoking confrontation.
However, just days after the declaration of independence, Lasetia's political trajectory took an unexpected turn. On 14 March 2023, Maximilian IB. announced the incorporation of Lasetia into the New Rubix Republic (NRR) as the Lasetian Administrative Territory (LAT). This move, which was met with shock and anger by some of the population, was intended to give Lasetia administrative support and connections to the NRR. Maximilian IB. himself held dual citizenship with the NRR, further complicating the situation. The LAT was meant to serve as a semi-autonomous region within the larger NRR framework, but it led to widespread dissatisfaction among the Lasetian citizens.
As tensions grew, with rumors circulating about potential revolts and calls for a new political party to oppose the NRR's influence, Max made the decision to sever ties with the NRR. On 15 March 2023, the Lasetian government officially declared independence from the NRR, citing the unhappiness of the population and reaffirming its commitment to peace and autonomy. While Lasetia’s independence was recognized internally, the government remained cautious about provoking external conflicts, particularly with the NRR and Germany.
The first days of Lasetia were marked by significant internal debate and political experimentation. The government remained in place without any minister resigning during this period, but its future direction depended on building a more active and engaged citizenry. The President focused on expanding the territory, stabilizing the government, and promoting a Lasetian national identity, while the country navigated its precarious position as a fledgling, self-declared nation.
First Lasetian Government
The first Lasetian government was formed on 11 March 2023, following a successful election in which Maximilian IB., as the leader of the CRPL party, won the presidency. The country's governance at this stage was largely a single-party system due to the low political engagement, with Max occupying multiple ministerial posts, including Interior Affairs, Health, and Community. Alexander IB. was appointed Minister of Interior Affairs, and Victoria IK. joined as Minister of Social and Family Affairs after becoming a citizen on 14 March 2023.
The National Council was initially small, with only three members, and its operations were not fully organized due to the country's limited population and resources. However, despite these challenges, the government managed to maintain stability throughout its first term, and no ministers resigned during this period.
Court cases
Case 23001: This case became a significant political event in October 2023, following the Hamas attacks on Israel. The controversy arose when a long-distance citizen and member of the left-wing faction Lasetian Red Star (LRS), Hunt P., publicly expressed support for Hamas by posting a picture of the Palestinian flag accompanied by the word "Hamas" with heart emojis. This post sparked a legal investigation, as it violated §5 of the Foreign Laws, which explicitly prohibits supporting or condoning terrorist organizations. The section states that any such support is considered national treason and may lead to the revocation of citizenship. Hunt P. chose not to defend himself during the legal proceedings.
The outcome of this case had broader political consequences. Following the conviction, A.H. Marhaen, a key member of LRS and the former Minister of Foreign Relations, expressed dissatisfaction with the decision and chose to leave Lasetia. Marhaen's departure led to a significant reduction in LRS's support base, with the party losing 75% of its followers. The case and its aftermath caused considerable political upheaval in the country.
Case 23002: This case involved the leader of the LRS, who was convicted for spreading false information against Lasetia, violating constitutional principles. The individual was sentenced to a one-week ban on political activity. Despite the ruling, the convicted leader, Jan K., attempted to challenge the verdict but was unsuccessful. With the backing of the Party Secretary, Jan K. filed a seven-page legal brief challenging both the verdict and the judicial process. This appeal, Case 23004, was debated in court but ultimately failed, resulting in an acquittal for the defendant and the closure of the case. The trial concluded based on §10 3.1 of the BGB.
Case 23003: In this case, Leonard K. was convicted for using symbols associated with the Reichsbürger movement, which is strictly prohibited under Lasetia's Constitution (§XXV 1). The conviction highlighted Lasetia's commitment to upholding laws against extremist ideologies and promoting national security and unity.
Incorporation of Uhoriaszag
After talks about founding the Slovak Micronational Alliance, the President of Lasetia and the General Secretary Nina I of Uhoriaszág, Uhoriaszág was incorporated as an autonomous District in Lasetia. This event happened 7 December 2023 and marks an important progress to Lasetias connection to Slovakia. The Goveneur of the District of Slovakian Territories, had reacted positively. In the early hours of December 7, 2023, the state of Uhoriaszág merged with Lasetia, forming an Autonomous Republic and thereby strengthening the connection between the two regions. This merger led to the adoption of the German language as the official language and the Lasetian Mark as the common currency.
The founding of the ZVP was accompanied by a series of political events, including its unofficial creation on December 12, 2023 and its official founding the following day. This was marked by the raising of the official tricolor and a referendum with unanimous approval for Uhoriaszág's independence.

If there are more than 3 Partys there can be a coalition formed if the Party with the most votes does not have absolute majority (50%+).
Second Lasetian Goverment
The Second Lasetian Goverment was elected 11 August 2023. Technically the Election should been held at 11 September but it was changed to 11 August because of the day of mourning in the USA caused by the Terroristic Attack and not to disrespect the victims of 9/11. The Central Reformer Party of Lasetia won the election with 80% of all votes, while the Leftist Liberal Lasetia Party gained 20% of all votes. The Cabinet is not purely out of CRPL, for example the Minister of Climate and Nature A.M. Marhaen is from the socialist party Lasetian Red Star and there are even talks about him becoming the Foreign Minister. The mentality the CRPL has is not to split the country but to communicate and find compromises to actually help the nation. In a Survey conducted 17 September 2023 by the LasetienTimes about 53% would vote the CRPL, 20% the LLL, 20% LRS and 7% the right-wing NLAP.

United Micronational Organization
Central
The CRPL is the Central Reformer Party of Lasetia. The Party is militaristic and in their political party programm it is the goal to expand their territory at all costs. At all costs is over the top, but it is a huge goal. Unlike other conversative parties on the globe, they want more people, and dont care if there from another country or are a different ethnic group or religion. The religious Freedom should be secured, but Christianity should be spread. The Central Reformer Party now rules the second term over Lasetia and is on a all time high.
Also the Party has been in Power for 1 year, 282 days and holds the post of the President.
Leftist Liberals
The Leftist Liberal Lasetia Party is a Green and Anti Militaristic party which is advocating for Pacifism especially for Lasetia being neutral in Russo-Ukrainian War, which was heavily critised by the Government. The Party has almost no relevancy in politics, in the Second General Elections in Lasetia the party had got 20% of all votes but in actual surveys just has around 7-14%. When the Ministry of Traffic published the social Lase ticket for public transport in Lasetia which is sold for a fee based on the Germany ticket, the LLL criticized that the ticket was too expensive.
Lasetia Red Star
Lasetia Red Star is a party founded 17 August 2023 by A.H Marhaen. In the peak of its popularity in September 2023 the party could reach from 15-40% of all votes in Surveys. The Party is strictly anti-capitalist, pro-communist, socialist and anti fascist and had advocated for its Principes. After the Court Case 2301, one of the leading person of the LRS had their citizenship revoked. After that A.H Marhaen decided to leave the party and nominated Jan K to be his successor. He spread misinformation harming §13 of the Consitution, so after Court Case 2302 he was sentenced to "Exclusion from politics" for one week. He tried to oppose the convictions, but got nothing out of it. After the strong rise in members of the Lasetian server, the Party saw a rise in Numbers, but was still only able to acieve around 20-25%.

Military
Lasetia, a micronation, has a small but dedicated military force called the Laseti National Army. This force is the backbone of Laseti defenses and is made up of a well-trained group of volunteer soldiers. The Lasetian National Army was created to ensure the security and sovereignty of the nation. Although Lasetia is small, the army has a clear structure and hierarchical organization. At the head of the force is the Commander-in-Chief, who has overall responsibility for the troops. Under him there are experienced officers who lead various departments, including infantry, artillery, logistics and communications.
Despite Lasetia's limited resources, the national army is well equipped and trained. Soldiers regularly participate in drills and maneuvers to hone their skills and be prepared for potential threats. Although they lack the technological advances of a great power, the soldiers compensate with their determination and loyalty to Lasetia. The main tasks of the Lasetian National Army are the defense of the national territory, the support of humanitarian operations and the preservation of peace in the region. The soldiers take pride in protecting their fatherland and contributing to stability, even though the greatness of their nation is often ridiculed. Despite its small size, the Lasetian National Army symbolizes the spirit of defense and cohesion. She represents the ideals of Lasetia and shows that even small nations can maintain their sovereignty and protect their citizens.
Given the challenges Lasetia faces, the National Army plays a crucial role in securing the future of the imaginary nation. Her soldiers embody the bravery and dedication of her homeland and are willing to give their lives to defend their nation.
The principe of the Ministry of Defense, War and Propaganda is: a war or conflict would mean that diplomacy failed and its just a waste of energy and ressources to start a war against another Micronation. But not every other Micronation follows this principe. So the Minister of Defense, Maximilian IB. also President wanting his Nation to be able to defend itself. The expenses for the Lasetian National Army is makes around 18%
Structure
The Head of the LNA or Lasetian National Army is the Minister of Defense, War and Propaganda . His task is to structure the Army and develop it, but he is not responsible for foreign relations and cannot declare a war, because this is the function of the President. The Minister of Defense, War and Propaganda is responsible that the Lasetian National Army is well equipped and he should provide for a good equipment for the Recruits. The Lasetian National Army is structured in 6 Battalions. Each Battalion has a special Task.3 of the 7 Battalions are not trained to fight in a conventional Fight but help the army in the conflict, for example the Lasetian Military Medicine Battalion is taking care of wounded soldiers. Every Battalion has a task, and the Generals can decide free what to do in an armed Conflict because the tactics of War are rapidly changing and the Lasetian National Army wants to be as strong and functioning as possible. There are some Battalions:
Infantery Battalion : Normal Soldiers, Foot Soldiers
Cavallery Battalion : Soldiers equipped with Bikes, better for fighting
Air Force : Protecting the airspace of Lasetia
Spy Battalion : Is responsible for gaining information from the enemy or bordering countrys
Lasetian Border Patrol : Is Responsible for Securing the Border of Lasetia, not to heavily armed
Cyber Battalion: Isn´t for Cyber attacks or bullying, its more a peace keeping Troop, who is advertising Lasetia and keeping its reputation
Military Medicine Battalion : Is taking care of wounded Soldiers and checks the Health of the Soldiers
Equipment
The Lasetian National Army is not well equipped as an army from any Country in the UN, but it can defend itself in an Emergency. For defending Lasetia has a dog, Bolt Cutter, Wooden Sticks and Hammer. The Border Patrol Battalion is for example equipped with an Bike Helmet, a Balaclava, Flashlight and a Rubber Mallet.
The LNA has declared a person to be the general commissioner who is responsible for ensuring that weapons and armaments production is greatly boosted. This general commissioner officially established an own Lasetian production of weapons.
Foreign relations
Lasetia recognize every other Micronation, that is recognizing it back and doesn´t have a territorial claim on Lasetia´s Territory (What should be impossible if the Territorial Claim is not a joke). The Free State also recognizes every Country of the UN and hopes for Recognition from them back. If another Micronation is threatening Lasetia, Lasetia will react immediately and if diplomatic relations completely fall, there will be Consequenzes. But Lasetia is peaceful and the foreign minister´s duty is to save the diplomatic relations. As already mentioned Lasetia won´t threaten any country only in an Emergency Case, where the Security of the People and State is in Danger such things as a Military Occupation or war happends. But it is a very important law that Lasetia is not aggressive or having territorial claims of territory from other Micronations.

Alliances
The State of Lasetia is an active member of the Commonwealth of Independent Nations and counts as a Cabinet Member and core state of the alliance having a impact on the organisation. The National Council of Lasetia ratified the declaration of membership 15 March 2023. The Ministry of Foreign Relations describes Lasetia in the CIN as a member of a community of free, independent, and equal states, united in common interest for the purposes of brotherhood, intercourse, and mutual aid and will respect the opinions of other member states and help them in need. Generally every party supports the membership in the alliance and after a Survey conducted, 100% of all asked people supported the alliance. The President of Lasetia describes the Enclave Empire as one of the most important allies in the alliance. The Enclave Empire is the first and only nation to have signed an Act of Partnership Agreement and the third nation to sign a Treaty of mutual recognition for Lasetia. Lasetia had also talks with the President of New Tejas to buy a tank until 2027 and having an trade association. How realistic this is, is questionable but is a goal for the CRPL to do.
Lasetia was for a month member of the CMTO, a more conservative alliance lead by Usmaanistan. It was one of the short living membership lasetia had. There was even a symbolic currency but Lasetia left the alliance because of the irrelevance and to focus to the main things.
One of the biggest goals of the actual Foreign minister is to establish a german-micronational alliance uniting many german micronations under one alliance to keep exchange between the states, even having meetings or summits. This German-Micronational Alliance is a concept and is not established because of the low diplomacy Lasetias with other german states. There were talks with the Bavarian Democratic Republic and some other micronation but the realisation progress didnt happend so the German-Micronational Alliance is just a concept for now. Lasetia is still interested, so if german speaking micronations show interest, please contact lasetiagov@gmail.com .
