The Cliff Strip, a USBI territory

The United Sea Bass Islands, or Sea Bass for short, is a sovereign micronation formed and founded on 30 June 2019. It has a democratic form of government, and currently has diplomatic ties with several other micronations. With initial claims to several rocks sticking out of the water in Lake Sebago in Harriman State Park, NY, USA, the United Sea Bass Islands have later claimed other such island places in the Lehigh River near Jim Thorpe, PA, USA and in the stream connecting Martling Lake and Brooks Lake in Staten Island, NY, USA. The USBI currently has approximately 35 citizens. Official Government Website: https://unitedseabassislands.wixsite.com/unitedseabassislands.
