The Principality of Northio, commonly known as simply "Northio", was a Self-Proclaimed Micronation in the Region of Northern Ohio (Southern Ohio too as of 7/12/2021). Northio was Established on March 3rd, 2021, when it Officially declared Secession against the United States of America. It originally claimed a Region of Northern Ohio, however soon expanded into the South after discovering a chunk of unclaimed land that bordered Joseph I's Grandfather's property. It was Dissolved on September 7th, 2021, and was then succeeded by the Empire of Meritia.

History

Before starting off as the Principality of Northio, the land claim(s) belonged to different sources. The land in Southio existed as a Privately owned Plot since the 1800s, where in 1990 it was purchased by Joseph I's family. The Northern Region of land claims was originally a private plot of land, similar to Joseph I's plot. It was purchased in 2009 by Joseph I's immediate family, where he lived out his days until Establishing Northio in the region, as well as declaring a part of his house to be the Northio-American Embassy. Northio since it's creation has been involved with many Diplomatic Relations between other Micronations, and is currently recognized by 3 different Micronations. Northio currently has high tensions with the Ambulatory Free States of Obsidia considering them to be a "bad look for Micronationalism" and a "Western Feminist joke". Obsidia has also been charged with the countless murders of the future generations of Northio's allies, the United States of America, and War is on the horizon. On the 7th of September, 2021, Northio was Dissolved, with the Empire of Meritia succeeding it.
