Hello from the Laughocratic Jokerdom Of

[nicholasthemad]

Hello. I am from the Laughocratic Jokerdom Of, the first joke micronation. I would like to open diplomatic relations with you, as I know you are a nation with a sense of humour. While we are not yet on the map, our claim is going through.

As a token of friendship our Minister for Silly Walks would like to perform a silly walk for you

[Nathan]

I'm sure we would be delighted to enter into diplomatic relations with the Jokerdom. Please present a treaty if you would be so kind.
