I remember sometime ago, when almost everyone who had access to the internet in Nigeria wanted to relocate to the "Republic of Lomar" by just filling an online form. Wow! What a time that was. Does anyone in the house remember? If you filled out that the online forms then, what were your expectations cum experiences at the time? I'm sure so many would be laughing at themselves right now.

One of the most recent mythical places, the Lomar Republic is a virtual country, created on the Internet in 1995. It is one of several "micronations" that exist. Others are: the Principality of Corvinia, the Kingdom of Talossa, the Dominion of Melchizedek, and others.

The Lomar Republic issues passports and claims to have about thousands of "citizens." The location of Lomar is sometimes given as between Alaska and the North Pole, although it actually has no geographical location. You can search for websites about the Republic of Lomar- their own site has been down lately.

Unfortunately, some people have tried to take advantage of this novel idea. There have been several scams in Nigeria, where hopeful citizens who want to leave the country have been sold passports applications.
