The concept of floating cities may sound like something from a science fiction novel, but it could become a reality by 2020. Seasteading Institute, a San Francisco-based nonprofit has been developing this idea since the foundation of the organization in 2008, and it has reached an agreement with the government of French Polynesia to begin testing in its waters.

The main aim of the idea is to “liberate humanity from politicians” and “rewrite the rules that govern society”

I don't like seas/Oceans, how much more living in a city that is surounded by waters. What if there is a strong wave and the waters is greatly upset? I can't deal. This place is not meant for me.

New country? Not so fast.
It's been sited in French Polynesian waters.
The moment you try that thing in international waters, you will receive unwanted attention from Navies of countries with serious muscle -
warships, submarines of U.S, Russia, China and a host of other countries will suddenly remember they have a right of navigation in international waters.

Nature will always show itself when it wants to, and our human imperfections will always take its place too.

If a City can float, that means the city won't have specific location.
