In this issue

Beyond the list of countries that we all hear about, there are many that are still
unrecognised or have limited recognition, many self-proclaimed sovereign
republics, micronations and territories that are truly bizarre but worth checking
out nonetheless. Most of us have never heard of majority of these micronations

Also included in the issue are travel news, an artist’s impression of Salta and
images of world under lockdown through the brushstrokes of a travel artist.
