The Principality of Gerseland, often referred to Gerseland, or simply, Gerse, was a micronation located in North America. Gerseland was founded on the 6 May 2021 and was created in response to then current events in the United States of America. Gerseland consisted of 6 Counties and 2 Provinces with 3 Counties in each Province. The counties were Sersny, Antarni, Gonaghen, Garmagh, Ryantown and Baghton. The provinces were as Shermenagh, and Jacobsen. Gerse started drafting its constitution on 29 October 2021.
Gerse had 3 Branches of government, Legislative, Executive and Judicial. Gerse started with a governor for each county, each county governor form a committee which forms a province. For example: the Committee of Shermenagh. Each province had a form of supreme court each having 3 Justices. When the Committee did actions or whatever, the Justices checked the constitutionality of that action or order given out. The main Judicial Branch of Gerse headquartered in Ryantown's main job was to interpret actions, orders and laws put in place by the other 2 branches and to settle territorial disputes and disputes about the constitutionality of some things. The Executive branch headquartered in Ryantown's main job was to enforce laws and carry out executive orders and other things listed in the constitution of Gerse. In the executive branch there was the Prime Minister > Deputy Prime Minister and the Royal Family. The Royal Family checked the power of the ones above and checked in with the nation and other things and did some charitable work. The Legislative branch had the main power in the government and got checked by the Judicial and checked the Executive.
Gerse was trying to open up ties with the Micronational Community to become a fully recognised micronation. Gerse operated the Micronational Accords Union (MAU). Gerse's borders were not open and only certain people were allowed to enter the Geographical Area of Gerse which was about 0.1-0.3 of an Acre. When the borders were open or if they opened, no passport was required but Gerse's Geographical Borders remained not open.

According to the Constitution, everyone has the right to a free and fair trial with the right to an attorney if requested. As well as the jury must be made up of where they committed the crime or near where it was committed. No one should be biased towards or against the defendent. (The Judicial System is pretty much the same as in the United States of America). Since there is no military the police pretty much are the military.
