Lashburnia Makes Its Debut at MicroCon 27 in San Diego

If you think you’ve seen it all in the world of tiny nations, think again. This August, the Constitutional Monarchy of Lashburnia steps onto the global micronation stage at MicroCon 27 in San Diego, California. Founded on November 4th, 2024, Lashburnia started as a bedroom project—just a spark of imagination inside the city of Whittier, about 27 miles from Los Angeles. Today, it’s a fully realized micronation, with three provinces, an external territory in Big Bear, thousands of fans, and a mission: inspire creativity, protect the planet, and cultivate national pride.

Prime Minister of Lashburnia explains it best: “We started small, but our dream has always been to create a space where people could express their love for nations, culture, and the world—while making it greener and more inclusive.” From lush national gardens and wildlife sanctuaries to the quaint capital of Greenoria, complete with a passport exchange office and vinyl library, Lashburnia proves that even the tiniest countries can leave a big impression.

The Sultan of Slowjamastan welcomes Lashburnia to the fold: “It’s always exciting to see new nations bring their energy to MicroCon. Lashburnia is a shining example of creativity and heart—San Diego, get ready.”

For the Prime Minister, MicroCon 27 isn’t just another event—it’s the first big public appearance for Lashburnia, a chance to meet giants like Molossia, Sealand, Ladonia, and, yes, Slowjamastan. And yes, there’s talk of yacht dinners, late-night discussions about flags and laws, and stories about nations that exist in the imagination but leave a mark in reality.

San Diego itself is part of the seduction. From Balboa Park strolls to the city’s famed food scene, the setting is as intoxicating as the conference. For those sitting on the fence, the Prime Minister offers a warning: “If you haven’t registered yet to attend MicroCon 2027, this is your chance. It only comes once every few years. Sign up now or risk getting left behind.”

Lashburnia is proof that small can be bold, whimsical can be serious, and a nation can start in a bedroom and end up on the world stage. This August, don’t just watch from the sidelines—come feel the pulse of MicroCon 27.
