A new post went up on the blog yesterday, considering the role of games in helping train micronations (or, really, anyone)

kingofslabovia.blogspot.com/2026/01/game...
Games, simulations, and micronations
Last week I put up a post about "Collect It All", a card game derived from a CIA training tool. That's got me thinking about games and simu...

Another post went up on the blog today - back into micronational spook country, but this time overlapping with the gaming community!

An Intelligence Training Tool - and a fun game!
Did you know that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) uses games to train its analysts? Let's talk about that! Today, I'm continuing to di...

Yet another Christmas card arrived in the mail today - it was mailed near Chicago on December 18th, so it took 26 days to travel 800km (about 1.3 km/h or less than 1 mph)...

Two more holiday cards arrived in today's mail, from Ladonia (on the left) and the Commonwealth of Dracul (right).

Another blog post is up - this one continues our series on intelligence work by taking a high-level overview of "red-teaming", AKA "playing bad guy".

How about another intelligence post? Let's talk about red teaming!
Hey, it's been a hot minute since we've talked about intelligence (i.e. spy stuff). As a reminder, micronations generally DON'T need an int...

It's a bit late, since Christmas was two weeks ago and we're already a week into January, but another Christmas card arrived in today's post, this one from West Who!

If you didn't know, 2025 was the "Intermicronational Year of Exploration". To celebrate, Slabovia organized an expedition to the headwaters of Deerlick Creek, a small tributary near the embassy. The report can be found via kingofslabovia.blogspot.com/2026/01/expe...

We were out of town for a few days, and while we were gone a couple more Christmas cards arrived. The one on the left is from the Aerican Empire featuring their cat (Bacon), and the other came from one of Slabovia's citizens.

There's a new post up on the blog this morning, pointing at a few resources for anyone who wants to learn diplomacy.
kingofslabovia.blogspot.com/2025/12/do-y...
Do you want to learn diplomacy?
Last week, we talked about how MicroCon seems to suit the bill as a good venue for diplomacy. However, what if you can't get to MicroCon, ...

On Friday, we continued our "Micronational Spook Country" series by looking at the concept of "counter-intelligence", and even drew (imperfect) parallels to earlier-discussed concepts of cryptography.
kingofslabovia.blogspot.com/2025/12/so-w...
So, what's counter-intelligence?
If you're hanging around the intelligence community, or watching too many spy movies, then sooner or later you're going to hear the term "c...

This blog post went up on Tuesday this week, and explores how MicroCon aligns to the principles of diplomacy. I think it's a pretty good fit!

Friday is blog day, and we're still in Spook Country, micronation-style. Today I'm discussing a powerful intelligence analysis technique, "Analysis of Competing Hypotheses" or ACH, that helps prevent "tunnel vision" in the field.

It's Tuesday, and another new post went up over on the blog - apparently I'm still not done talking about "Spook Country, Micronational Style"...

It's a milestone over on the blog - the 100th post! I ruminate about where we've come from, talk about where it might be going in the near future, and complain about Google's AdSense program saying it's "low-content".

There's a new post up over on the blog discussing "Minecraft Micronations" - that is, micronations whose claimed territory is entirely virtual. And I manage to draw a parallel to Neal Stephenson's cyberpunk classic "Snow Crash"

Happy Friday! Or, Happy Black Friday, if you celebrate commercial excess. 🙂 Anyway, there's a new post up over on the blog, with links to a couple of old (post-MicroCon 2019) videos:

There's another new post over on the blog - this time I'm explaining why it might actually be a good idea for your micronation to have a military!
kingofslabovia.blogspot.com/2025/11/micr...
Micronational militaries?
My thoughts on "micronational war" (being a very silly concept) are, I think, well known. And, as documented here recently, I don't think mi...
