The Long Island Region or the Long Island sector is a geographical micronational area physically associated with Long Island and its barrier islands. The best known micronations from this region are Cesidio Tallini's Independent Long Island and the Aynvaul Micronation with both receiving media coverage[1][2]. However inside in the Microwiki sector, it can be argued that Ausveria has earned some notoriety as well. Long Island itself comprises a wide variety of terrain, including woodlands, beaches, coastal pine barrens, prairies, suburban towns, and urban cityscapes.

History

Some of the original 13 tribes of Long Island, despite losing their reservations and being largely assimilated or relocated, persisted as tribal organizations into the present day without federal recognition, such as the Matinecock which still has members living near Cold-Spring Harbor and Glen Cove and two rival organizations claiming to be the legitimate Matinecock tribe.

The earliest known Long Island micronationalist was Cesidio Tallini, who founded the Tallini Family in 1998. Despite the democratic monarchy initially having a non-internet presence, its foundations and legal system became entirely web-based.[3][4] Another notable micronationalist from this sector is Gordon III who is in charge of Long Island's oldest continuous micronation of Aynvaul. While it is debatable if North Dumpling Island should be included in this category, Dean Kamen should be given an honorable mention here.

On 28 May 2020 Fredrick M. founded the Assembly of Long Island Micronations.

In early October 2020, Vincent Vertuccio led a round table meeting attended by many delegates from the Long Island Micronational Area, discussing many issues relevant to the area.[5]

In 2027 it is slated to be the longest lasting Long Island based micronation.

Honorable mentions

Flag Micronation Year established Regions on Long Island Notes
North Dumpling Island circa 1988 North Dumpling Island in the Long Island Sound Founded in the 1980's by Dean Kamen, inventor of the Segway. While located in the Long Island Sound, it is geographically closer to Connecticut than to Long Island. Despite claims of this micronation having a flag, no flag design has been provided by any citable or credible source. It is unclear if this micronation is still active post-covid. It is one of two New York based micronations to have a fan-made Hetalia character made out inspiration by it with the other being Aynvaul. If extant, North Dumpling Island would be a solid contender for New York State's oldest extant micronation if Montmartre is defunct, predating Aynvaul by nearly two decades.

Dubious, unverified, or hoax Long Island micronations

Flag Micronation Year supposedly established Supposed Area Issues of Proof Notes *This category is for micronations that have a lack of evidence for existing on Long Island or may even be "Hoax" micronations if not heavily "Contested"*
Christian Republic of the Pongo 2010 Unknown Hoax: Likely invented by Tiana for Tiana's benefit of annexation for prestige or legitimization. Reasons for suspicion: Timeline points this way, Proximity to Tiana is practically the same street. (Defunct) conveniently became part of Tiana lore | Likely an invention of Tiana for the sake of annexation, this micronation was documented as being annexed on 10 July 2010 shortly after foundation.
Federation of Klausland 2022 Suffolk County Dubious/Possible Hoax: Much of the page is blank, and has been nominated for deletion at least twice. When rolling back edits, the page is full of nonsensical claims about future years such as claiming to de-facto control the world by the 2300's, additional investigation shows the page was created by user:ausveria which could indicate a possible origin as a hoax micronation created by that micronation. Additionally if it did exist, it is likely defunct by now given the complete lack of activity and notable independent absence from the internet. If a legitimate micronation, it is likely defunct as of July 2023.
Warlord State of Zhangdao before 2022 Unknown Dubious/Unverified: only sources on Microwiki are

certain Ausverian pages

No Microwiki page. Figures such as Samuel W. are supposedly associated with this nation. The nation is also reportedly a part of the Einheitspakt. Proposed Microwiki page here. Could be the successor of National Ausveria due to both having the same leaders and capital.
National Zionist Republic of Long Island 2023 Long Island Problematic: Potential origin for various vandal accounts such as Higuyscommiz banned by Strubber in early August. Dubious: This micronation does not appear to meet microwiki standards for page approval. Rejected Microwiki page, with mods having banned multiple alt accounts linked to this nation. Responsible for vandalization of multiple pages such as the Turisian wikipage
Republic of Grovia 2024(?) Garden City or Hempstead Dubious or Unverified: There is no proof of this micronation existing aside from footnotes on microwiki, activity on Discord, [6]and a proposed (draft) page. Also has some diplomatic ties[7]. It is possible the micronation is simply too new to of left a footprint anywhere. No valid Microwiki page, no working Website, no Social Media. The link "https://sites.google.com/view/grovia-gov/home?authuser=0" has been given however this website appears incomplete if reliable.
Republic of Fish 2024(?) Garden City or Hempstead Dubious or Unverified: Only proof of existence being from a single discord account. All evidence involve this nation being related to the Republic of Grovia(also Dubious). no significant proof of existence, other than a discord account and the the supposed nation of Grovia referencing it. Most likely an unserious nation.
Kakistocracy of New Hagen 2024 Long Island Unverified: activity on Discord, but only one reference on Microwiki Referenced as a member of the Rusilkian Security Alliance. Supposedly has close ties with Rusilkia.
