The Government and People of TorHavn, in order to restore the return of Nobility, Chivalry, Honour & Ecology as Principles to live by, do hereby declare the founding of this Kingdom everafter as a sovereign Nation, as per the Montevideo Convention as adopted by the United Nations. We manifest TorHavn as an independent world nation, with its own legal and lawful government, with all international rights and responsibilities that such status carries.
As a sovereign nation, TorHavn makes the following claim to various international territories and rights:
We especially acknowledge the territory that is the home of the California Coastal Redwood to be our own cultural and eco-spiritual homeland, and claim historical & de-facto rights to all territories & properties which lie between the Cascade Mountains on the eastern borders, the Pacific Ocean on the eastern border, the current northern of the State of California on our northern border and the latitude which is parallel to San Francisco Bay as our southern border, and all land that is contiguous within: eco-spiritually, culturally and physically are hereby included.
However, we also recognize the modern political realities which currently make the restoration of such lands to us impossible. Therefore we limit our active territorial claim to an amount of land at least equal to that held by the sovereign state of Vatican City; 108 contiguous acres. This is the least amount of land which we intend to buy or be ceded.
Furthermore, in order that our world presence may be established, TorHavn claims our physical territory to be extant and manifest through all those places that our State and Citizens may physically own, occupy, and maintain throughout the known world and outer space when this becomes possible. These territories shall exist in a status of Dual Sovereignty, being under the cultural and ecological administration of TorHavn, even as they remain under the civil dominion and laws of (the) other hosting nation(s). We pledge to embody a benign and beneficial cultural and ecological influence throughout all of Society, while remaining politically neutral and lawful in action, until such time as Chaos comes.
We, the Citizens and Government of TorHavn hereby formally renounce, eternally and without exception, the use of force, rebellion, coercion, or intimidation in the pursuit of our international status and claims, for such is not needed. We shall strive to be a honourable, diplomatic and peaceful nation, in accord with the ideals that should be shared by all the world's leaders.
(Signed and Sealed)
