The Republic of Alomorie is a former micronation that was founded on 4 September 2020. Its capital was located in the small town of Harrison AR. It originally was supposed to be based on Baker Island, U.S, but officials decided to move the capital to their home. They elected Nathan Hall for President, and Jason Hall for Vice President. The ROA had 24 states, 14 territories, and 3 federal districts.
History
Alomorie started out as an idea from Nathan Smith, taking inspiration from the Republic of Molossia the Principality of Sealand & the Principality of Hutt River. His basic thought was that it would be interesting to see what would happen if he did, in fact, start his own country. On August 25, 2020, his birthday, he began thinking about it some more. He decided that Baker Island was a good place to rule, due to the fact that there is no authority on the island itself. It also was uninhabited, so he thought nobody would really care.
Old Flag & Seal
On Aug. 30, 2020, He had designed a flag. It had red and blue Bars and had a yellow Shield in the center. Also, it had a triangular cutout on its right side. His brother, Jason Smith, had also made a seal, it was very primitive in nature, using an oval, turtle, and text. At first Nathan Smith thought these would be forever, but all great things come to an end. On Sept. 30, 2020, Nathan Smith, had a press conference, and declared, "Now that we are no longer brand new, we should make our flag and seal more professional in nature, using our top noche skills to design a flag. In fact, I will design a flag the I believe represents Alomorie. And I urge everyone here to do the same. On- October 1st, 2020, we shall present our flag to the Congress, and allow them to vote on the best design." On October 1, many people, including his brother, Vice President Jason Smith, presented their flags to Congress. But, in spite of the competition, Nathan Smith won the vote of 55, officially declaring the current flag its place in history. The Seal was quite similar, many designs were shown to Congress. But only one had to win. In the end, Jason Smith's seal emerged victorious, with a vote of 54.
New-Current Flag of Alomorie
1 year into its existence, Nathan Smith decided to ask to change the flag and seal. He wanted them to match the more modern era of flags used for some states, such as; San Burlos, Nativitas, Catalone, North & South Amora, and Carolena. In order to keep tradition, Nathan Hall decided to make Oct. 1, 2021 the new flag adoption date. He created the new flag and seal all by himself, due to everyone else said it was a better choice if it was him. The new flag and seal was officially adopted on Oct. 1, 2021, and will fly on Oct. 2, 2021.
Constitution
The Constitution of the ROA was written by Nathan Hall, Jason Hall, and Rey Danes. Used for all lawful actions, it is considered the base example of overall law in the ROA. Using the U.S. Constitution for reference, it uses very similar acknowledgements, such as:
- Freedom of Speech
- Freedom of Life
- Freedom on Liberty
- Freedom of Religion
- Freedom of Protest
But adds;
- Freedom of Land
- Freedom of Exploration
- Freedom to visit Federal Grounds
Declaration of Independence
The Declaration of Independence of the ROA was written by, Nathan Smith, Jason Smith, and Rey Danes. Used in the time of secession, it is the first official document of the ROA. It uses the (then) seal of the ROA, and used the iconic words, "We the People, of Alomorie, declare Independence from the United States." And was signed by President Nathan Hall.
Military & Services of the R.O.A
The ROA had 3 branches of military and 2 service branches at the end of its lifetime. Previously, the ROA had the Republic of Alomorie Space Agency (RASA) space program, but it was discontinued in Oct. 2020. But it was revived as the Alomorie Sub-Orbital Agency (ASOA) on June 24, 2021.* All but 3 of these branches were proposed by (Former) Vice President Jason Smith. Nathan Smith proposed the National Park Service of the ROA (NPSROA) because he believed, "Baker Island has rare wildlife surrounding it. We need to protect them, and I believe that we should add a National Park Service to not only protect the life, but their habitats as well"- In front of Congress, Sept. 20, 2020.
States
During its lifetime, the ROA managed to conjure up 24 states. Most of them located on Baker Island. They were all proposed by (Former) President Nathan Smith, (Former) Vice President Jason Smith, and (Former) Vice President Rey Danes. They had to pass through Congress and had to win a bipartisan vote of 55. All but three of the states have achieved these standards. The other three states are formerly considered, "Commonwealths."
Civil War of 2021
On Feb 5, 2021, Jason Smith spoke out against President Nathan Smith. He was angry and was threatening civil war. Later that day, he stepped up on the presidential podium and said," We the people of Alomorie, need to fight against the President and Government...He has been the president for six months now, and it isn't fair." Later, he wrote a draft of his "Declaration of Independence" He then went back on the podium and said these famous words," We the People, Declare independence from our own nation. We need to fight against the President and his supporters, President Nathan Smith is too selfish, immature, and (irrational) to stay in office. He is too old, rude, and has done more harm than good. We need to fight. The president does not care about this nation, he only cares about himself. He hasn't done ANYTHING good for this country. He has only brought us apart than together- We Must Fight!" Later, President Nathan Smith invited him to his office. They talked for a couple of hours, and discussed the tension between them. "I am willing to propose a deal for you." said President Nathan Smith, "But it isn't in your favor." Then he showed Jason Article VII in the ROA Constitution. Jason's response, "I don't want to make an agreement, I want freedom from you, and for you to get out of office!" Because of that remark, Nathan showed him Article IV- Section 2 "Removal from Office". "I don't want you to be removed by vote, because you'll win! I you out NOW!" said Jason.
The War
Even after the Presidents attempts to loosen tension, the war was about to begin. Jason challenged him, and there was a quiet haze over the soon to be battlefield.
Battle of Main Park
The Battle of Main Park was the first attack of the Civil War. It was short and sweet, and was to see who's stick would break first! There were three advances in Main Park, but those all ended in retreat.
The Battle Behind
The Battle Behind was a long, hard, and draining one. It was won by Vallhal, Jason Hall's Rebellion, by a retreat from Alomorie.
The Battle of Neighborsfeild
This was the longest battle of all. It lasted for 3 hours, and ended in a draw, leaving the final score;
Alomorie | 2 | |
---|---|---|
Vallhal | 2 |
The Creation of Vallhal
Shortly after the Battle of Neighborsfield, Jason Smith met with Nathan Smith in his office. Nathan Smith agreed that they did deserve some land, but not all of Alomorie. In the end a deal was made that Vallhal would take Jarvis Island, and become a Dependency of Alomorie. Later they designed a flag and seal. And Jason Hall was forward with the idea of a Dependency, allowing them to finally be at peace.
Ending of Vallhal
On Sept 12, 2021, Nathan and Jason Smith made an agreement to end the Dependency of Vallhal, due to the hardships the area had faced.
Monuments
After the Civil War, Alomorie and Vallhal teamed up the create a memorial, to remember the Civil War.

Main Park Memorial
Main Park Memorial is the largest memorial as of now, being 6"1' feet wide, and 3'0' feet long. The area of which the memorial was created on is the same place as were the Battle of Main Park took place. On Feb, 7, 2021, President Nathan Hall, and governor Jason Hall, both made announcements of the upcoming memorial that would be made. Jason Hall also made his own memorial to represent the Vikings of Vallhal, and to represent their independence. Being very primitive in nature, it is called a cairn, and is made of rocks, in a circle, with 5 rocks on top of it.
Second Civil War
On September 29, 2021, once again, out of the blue, Jason Smith had declared war upon the ROA. He had just founded the Yamata Empire, just a few weeks after Vallhal was re-incorporated. He had wrote a letter to the president, Nathan Smith, stating his commands if to have peace. Here is an excerpt from the letter; " The Yamata declare war upon Alomorie, [we have] The Elite gang and want to end Alomorie. We want President Nathan Smith out of office! We want to have half of Alomorie states, half of their [military] and Nathan out of office. We chose fate, we don't bow down to anyone but Emperor Jason Smith! " Shortly after this message was sent, Nathan Hall sent a letter back, stating these famous, but funny, words; "In response to the Yamata, I deny your Declaration of war. I ask of you this, you and what army? If you are to be serious, I must remind you that Alomorie is a power to be reckoned with. And to your requests, its an absolute no to all. The people of Alomorie elected me fairly, discreetly, and though the elective process. Also, Jason, this is the second time you've attempted to overthrow the [Republic]. But if you do so wish to fight, you will loose. Just ask Vallhal, oh wait, they don't exist anymore." Sources say that Jason laughed at the letter. But with all wars, or in this case, civil wars, there must be battles.
The War
Like during the first Civil War, it was to see who's stick would break first. Jason challenged him, and the battle was about to begin.
The Battle of Sakurambo
As the Autumn leaves were falling, the Yamata had a feeling rush down their back, a sense of pride. There was two advancements, both in retreat from Alomorie.
Battle of Kingjo no Hito
(Renamed for fun) The battle of [Neighborsfield] was a short one. Ironically, it was won by the Yamata, and Alomorie retreated in fear. Yamata had taken the lead and Alomorie was getting tencer by the moment.
Battle of Hilly Stump
This war was pretty dull, to be honest. It only lasted for a few minutes. It took place in the road border between Alomorie and the USA. The Yamata advanced past the border and attacked the border patrol. The fight was actually the most painful for the Yamata, due to the fact that the cut themselves with a previously acquired weapon from Kinjo no Hito.
The Creation of the Yamata Empire
After the Civil War, Nathan Smith agreed to some demands, but stayed President. The Yamata Empire accepted Alomorie's terms, causing them to own the states of: San-Lores, Lokahfan, North Lokahfan, Dulóke, Hallersk, Colombia, Sartanor, and Magnolia. Though they kept their original flags and seals.
The Three Way Split
On Oct. 3, 2021, the ROA was split up by three different countries. Those being the ROA, The Yamata Empire, and the People's Socialist Republic of Alomorie. This split up happened due to the restlessness of the ROA, which began to divide when the Yamata Empire formed. There was a cold conflict between the PSRA and the ROA, until they disbanded.
Countries | Republic of Alomorie | The Yamata Empire | PSRA |
---|---|---|---|
Controlled States | 21 | 5 | 3 |
Also, due to the PSRA's founding, the states of San-Lores, Lokahfan, and Duloke changed their flags. All of the PSRA flags have a hammer and a sickle, representing their communist ideals. The flags were made to resemble the original flags so that their easily recognizable.

Flags For PSRA |
Ending of the (PSRA)
On Oct 25, 2021, Nathan Smith and Rey Danes made an agreement to end the PSRA, due to the government being illegitimate, poorly developed, and split up of rivals.
Ending of the Yamata Empire
On Jan 29, 2022, the Yamata Empire was disbanded due to blockades of their capital, Jarvis Island. As a result of these blockades, the people revolted against him, and ended the government.
Response to the Russian-Ukrainian War
Due to the conflict in Eastern Europe, the Republic of Alomorie introduced sanctions on the Russian Federation. The sanctions are all, but not limited to:
- Banning of all Russian-made goods
- Inaccessibility to the official ROA website
- Limitations for Russian born citizenship
As well as these sanctions, the ROA increased their defense and readiness for Russian cyber-warfare. We stand with the people of Ukraine, whose bravery and resiliency has proved that it doesn't take a huge army to be a strong nation. All of the men and women who are defending their country, they are the real heroes of this conflict. Slava Ukraine!

Annexation of Boone County, Arkansas
The Republic of Alomorie and it's territories agreed on the peaceful annexation of Boone County, Arkansas. On 5/31/22, the Senate of the ROA approved of it's annexation with a vote of 54-1. The decided area of land was chosen due to the President's presence and knowledge of the area. This land is home to many cities and towns, such as Harrison, Bergman, Lead Hill, Diamond City, Alpena, Capps, Batavia, And Zinc. Those are most of the towns and cities within Boone County.
The largest city in Boone County is Harrison. With a population of approximately 13,548, it is home to the president and his family. Boone County's second largest city is Diamond City. As of a 2020 census, it has a population of around 950 people. Nathan Hall goes to school in the town of Lead Hill, just 1 mile south of Diamond City.
A Big Change
On September 8, 2022, just four days after The Republic of Alomorie's 2nd year, Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II of England passed away at the age of 96. Because of her death, Nathan Smith found it fitting, that a young country will die will an old monarch. So, on Oct. 1, 2022, the Republic of Alomorie ceased to exist, only being a memory of once was, and due to this, all of the former states, territories, military and service branches, and leaders will no-longer be associated with the Republic of Alomorie. Finally, I, the President of Alomorie, who has written all of this Microwiki Article, thank you for reading, and also being a part of the journey. Thank you.
