There are many continents in the world. These continents have also been divided into many countries. The reason for this is clear. When pieces of land are divided into pieces and boundaries are kept, it becomes easier to rule over it. People know which country they are in and follow the rules there. But do you know that there is a place in the world which does not come under any country. That means this piece is independent and anyone can rule here.
Actually, according to the Antarctic Treaty made in 1959, Antarctica is a place where no one can occupy the land. But the place we are talking about does not fall in the Antarctic region. We are talking about a place named Bir Taweel. This place falls in the middle of a rugged desert. There are no resources to support life at this place surrounded by mountains. Because of this no one can live here. This is a place which is not under any country.
No country has asserted its rights
Many people made single claim
Although officially this place is not inside any country, but there are many people who come here and claim their rights over it. In 2014, American Jeremiah Heaton planted a flag at this place so that his daughter could become the princess of this place. He named this place Kingdom of North Sudan. He even started selling his citizenship of this imaginary country. In December this year, a Russian man also claimed his rights over this place and named it Kingdom of Middle Earth. There are many other people who came here and declared themselves the owners of this place. But legally this piece is still independent.
