The Republic of Fort Woodchuck, officially the Republic of Fort Woodchuck and Fort Hailey's, often simply referred to as Fort Woodchuck, was a micronation in Northern Illinois and had a population of 7 people. The president was Allen J. Hanna and it used the Pennonian as its currency which was equivalent to 1 US dollar. It claimed territory in the Great Lakes Area of the United States

Etymology

The name "Fort Woodchuck" came from an old fort located in west Woodchuckia in the Fort Woodchuck district. The fort was originally called Fort Allen but was renamed because of the abundance of Groundhogs in Northern Illinois

History

The nation was formerly Fort Allen under United States rule with a population of only 2. It slowly developed when cement was discovered under the fort, starting a month-long project of clearing away dirt and leaves. After a while, the fort was rebuilt with a new road. This is when the first flag was raised. On August 4, 2021, the area was renamed Fort Woodchuck because of the nearby Woodchucks surrounding the Illinois landscape. After a while, the fort was abandoned after not being used for a couple of months. Soon on September 20, 2021, the fort was renamed again and declared independence as the People's Confederacy of Arrowstan, a communist nation. After a month, Arrowstan collapsed and came out as the Socialist Republic of Fort Woodchuck.
