Royal Principality of Lumeria
The Royal Principality of Lumeria, also known as Lumeria, or Grand New Seville (After their "territory" and also micronation Viceroyalty of New Seville), is a micronation claiming sovereignty of Dinner Key in Miami and claim to also control an island near the Bahamas. The micronation has not received recognition from any of the member states of the United Nations. It claims to be founded in 1944 by Prince Ramón I. Their Current Leaders are Prince Julio I and Prime Minister Joshua Sulca.
History
Lumeria claims to have been founded by Prince Ramón I, upon the birth of his son, Prince Ali I, in 1944. The Lumerian Ministry of Foreign relations claims that it was founded by Prince Ramón I due to his malcontent with Venezuela's Neutrality in World War II. Ramón's son, Prince Ali was born and raised in Venezuela but studied Engineering in Mexico. Prince Ali married Princess Gloria in 1969 and gave birth to 3 heirs Duke Ali, Duke Neil, and Duchess Nury. After Prince Ali's death in 2020, none of his inmediate heirs wanted to inherit the throne, so it was assigned to Prince (Then-duke)Julio I, who was the son of Duchess Nury. This heirloom complication angered the already rebellious United Republican Party, and led by Governor Alfaro of Josephland began a rebellion movement. Alfaro was Executed the 6 of February 2022. Currently Lumeria alleges to hold relations with Sealand, Taiwan and China.
