The Republic of Plaktukai (pronounced Plack-Two-Kay) was founded on August 28, 2012, but officially declared independence from the United States of America on October 20, 2012. The Declaration of Independence was penned and signed by then President of the Committee of Independence, Vera Hewitt.
History
Originally a part of The State of Kentucky, the US citizens who lived in what is now Plaktukai were fed up with the corrupt government styles of their country. Led by Vera Hewitt, they created what was then known as simply "Plaktukai". The form of government was undecided. Some wished for Hewitt to become Queen, or Empress, or even Dictator, but Hewitt established the nation as a Democratic Republic during a meeting with the Committee of Independence. Platukai was known at first as the "People's Republic of Plaktukai", and renamed the "Grand People's Republic of Plaktukai".
Plaktukai entered the Union of Micronational Soviet Socialist Republics, or UMSSR on November 2, 2012.
On November 29, 2012, the Declaration of Neutrality lead to many changes in Plaktukai, such as the abolishment of the predominantly Socialist government of Plaktukai, and the removal of any specific political imagery from national symbolism. Plaktukai was reformed as the "Republic of Plaktukai".
