Currently, the United States has 20 World Heritage Sites and 47 Biosphere Reserves encompassing 51 million acres - an area nearly the size of Colorado.3 The U.S. is required to regularly report to the U.N. on the status of its World Heritage Sites, specifically its “preservation and protection techniques and its efforts to encourage public awareness about cultural and national heritage”.
I hereby declare my 3 acres (which exist within the borders of the entity
formerly known as "The United States of America"), a free and independent state,
and a World Heritage Site (where trespassers will be shot on sight).
Am I elligible for any world financial assistance?
In keeping my state free of trespassers, that is?
