Welcome to Hanover!

The Kingdom of Hanover is a sovereign, non-territorial nation. Anglophile in character, the Kingdom of Hanover is broadly modelled after the English Monarchy as it existed during the golden Elizabethan Era. Due to its size the Kingdom is often called a micronation, but this does not stop citizens from maintaining a vibrant culture and sophisticated government. This website was created to help visitors learn more about Hanover, and to make the immigration process smooth. We hope that you enjoy your visit.

About the Kingdom

Hanover's first Sovereign, King James the First, established the Kingdom to capture the unique character of the British monarchy, not only in the operations of its parliamentary government, but also in the majesty and grace of its ceremonies and institutions.

Ever since, the Hanoverian people have worked steadily toward His Majesty's dream, the creation of a nation fit to stand as an equal to the great modern nation-states. Hanover is a community of dedicated citizens, dignified institutions, and free, popular government.

But being a Hanoverian is not all about complex statutes and elaborate ceremonies: ours is a nation that has managed to balance the serious pursuit of our goals with simply having a good time. National discussions range from the intellectual to the risqué, and frivolity always reigns in the HaNgOvEr bar.

About Non-Territorial Nations

Non-territorial nations are communities ranging in size from one person to hundreds of people, with the average size being about a dozen citizens. Such nations are founded for a variety of reasons, from seccessionist claims to simple egotism on the part of the founder, but almost all attempt to create a unique national culture and a functional government.

Hanover falls in the elite group of serious nation builders, which often have a stated goal of some day acquiring territory, and tend to reach a much higher level of governmental and social development than others. One hallmark of serious nation builders is a refusal to indulge in simulated wars and economies in which nothing of real value is produced.
