Bear in mind that as the applicant, you will always have the right to resurrect it.

Re: Application for preservation: New Brittania
How exactly does the society preserve Micronations anyway?
Is it a kind of micronational copyright recognising that anyone ressurrections said micronations are technically illegal?

Re: Application for preservation: New Brittania
In a way, yes. Given the fact that, for example, the Foundation is tied to the MCS, this means the MCS will not recognise the illegal nation, giving the preservation of a nation some actual meaning (as opposed to someone merely saying "Oh yes such and such is now "preserved"- it does actually mean something). The idea behind the Foundation sprouted from Asimov's idea of a Foundation in his Foundation series (blergh)- Only a few days ago I read the book and found out that the Foundation was not at all as I first thought (I was going to ruin the story there, but thought best not). In exactly the same way, our Foundation was founded with the intent of studying, analysing and preserving micronational culture. This quickly gave way to the idea of copyright- apparently back in the day, illegal resurrections were much more common than they are now- and so that is where we have been at for a long time. For that purpose, however, the Foundation remains important. I just wish it could be more.
I am looking to revitalise the original purpose of the Foundation, but since it will require quite some support, and since I have so much on my plate (the decision to become a single citizen sounded good, but really it meant that the same amount of time was spent in one nation rather than three collectively), this will have to happen sometime in the not too distant future.
