UMMOA Foreign Ministry (UFM)

This news summary is brought to you by *Intermicronational World* (IW), a government news agency. IW is a genuinely alternative news source. IW has existed since October 2011, but was forced to expand its services in March 2014 because of a lack of scholarly or scientific articles about micronations, and has since become a daily source of news, and not just about micronations. The government behind IW is the UMMOA-GEO (or Ummoagian) Nation-State. UMMOA® is a United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) registered collective mark, and the wordmark is recognised by the USPTO as a political organisation concerned with international affairs. The UMMOA is also recognised by various IGOs, NGOs, churches, and nations and states with limited recognition. GEO, on the other hand, was registered at its Winnecomaq (Long Island) address with Google as a Government Office on 6 December 2014, and is actually made up of all the private properties of three real micronations. In reality, all real property owners can join GEO. GEO has recently founded the unique GEO Ministry of Homeless Affairs after helping expand two state of New Jersey NGOs. *UMMOA Foreign Ministry (UFM)* The UMMOA Foreign Ministry (UFM) website has begun to be updated in order to better able to transition people from the status of foreigner or stranger, to the status of Ummoagian or UMMOA National; from the world of Machiavellian polities which has done, and is doing no good for people, only further increasing the problems, to Cesidian societies where people can begin to solve the world’s current problems, and even the problems of their families and small communities. The UFM leaves little guesswork about the status of the UMMOA’s Foreign Relations — we have relations with only two agencies of governments, but not at very high levels — and invites the United States Secretary of State, and/or the Foreign Minister of the People’s Republic of China, or their respective diplomatic staffs, to go to the Paradiplomatic Affairs (PDA) website. Foreigners, their organisations, agencies, and/or higher level governments, that feel the urge to transition from the militaristic and simian kind, to the peaceful and genuinely human kind, thereby actually making themselves useful in order to better able to address the challenges of the future without meddling middlemen, can still have a direct relationship with the UMMOA-GEO (or ‘Ummoagian’) System outside of the UN System if they wish, but we will simply move on to better things if they wish to ignore us, as they have done so far.

Inside the weird world of the micronation

This news summary is brought to you by *Intermicronational World* (IW), a government news agency. IW is happy to serve as a genuinely alternative news source. IW has existed since October 2011, but was forced to expand its services in March 2014 because of a lack of scholarly or scientific articles about micronations, and has since become a daily source of news, and not just about micronations. The government behind IW is the United Micronations Multi-Oceanic Archipelago (UMMOA, UGV, or GV). UMMOA® is a United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) registered trademark, which means it is recognised by at least one US government agency. The USPTO also recognises the UMMOA trademark as indicating a political organisation concerned with international affairs, and the UMMOA is also a lower stage Third World nation, or a quasi-state, which claims the new small continent of Global Earth Oceans (GEO). Because the UMMOA is indeed concerned with international affairs, and it was being ignored even by international NGOs whose work is entirely complementary, since April 2015 GEO has helped to expand two state of New Jersey NGOs through the funding their application for US federal NGO status. In the future, through these two organisations, or their partners or affiliates, GEO hopes to begin to greatly alleviate the problem of homelessness globally. Through this mission GEO will behave like a de facto state. The UMMOA-GEO nation-state also supports the work of several other NGOs in the fields of freedom of the press; in the fields of environmental, linguistic, religious, and indigenous peoples’ preservation; and in the fields of human and nonhuman rights. *Inside the weird world of the micronation* An annual meeting of self-proclaimed Kings, Queens, Grand Dukes and Emperors took place in the Free Republic of Alcatraz this month.

However, he defended the venture by arguing that the “bad” deal was the only way for Greece to stay in the EU. Greece kind of reminds you of an abused wife, but instead of calling her lawyer to start divorce proceedings with “Paleo-Europe”, she goes back to the caveman for more beatings. George Santayana once wrote: “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” With Greece, however, it is more like this: “Those who fully remember the political past are condemned to repeat it, because they no longer have an organic society, the true backbone of a nation or people”.

In essence, Germany is not ready to admit that banks, and not the people of Greece were bailed out; that Greece was the convenient scapegoat used to save both European and Greek banks, and the troika Euro itself; and that Europe, like Pasiphae, the mythical wife of King Minos in Greek legends, is really the one that needs some “austerity” or discipline, because she needs to stop sleeping with bulls (international banksters) who have caused problems far greater than even the Greek-eating Minotaur of legend.

introduction about myself

*Had to write this introduction about myself for a future interview:* From a purely geographic perspective, I was born and have lived most of my life in North America, in the New York metropolitan area, but I also spent my formative years, about 11 altogether, in Europe, specifically in Italy. At my earliest recollection — I was about 7 or 8 years old then — I used to change my voice to sound like a Martian. It wasn’t just a child’s game. I actually felt like a Martian, like a non-earthly alien. About a year or two later I was domiciled in Italy, and I was still the alien, and this time I was «l’americano», the American. I didn’t look much different than the average blondish Italian, and my American accent disappeared very quickly by the time I was 10 or 11 years old. Yet I continued to be «l’americano», and girls didn’t treat me like I was «italiano» or Italian either. When I was 18 years old, and I came back more or less permanently to the United States, and I became the alien again, and this time I was considered “Italian-American”. I didn’t fit the stereotype of that kind of person either, people who either speak Italian only fluently, or American English only fluently, but that was the way I was described and treated. I didn’t have black skin, yet I have experienced prejudice or xenophobia all my life, and both in the United States and in Italy. I experienced prejudice or xenophobia from all kinds of people, even from university professors. Even 18 years later, at the ripe age of 36, I still didn’t feel like the Italian-American people thought I was, and by then I actually was the only non-African person serving the African-American community of Cambria Heights, New York, through a local non-profit. The truth about my real ethnicity would become clear only later. The truth is that I was never a US American even in my coming-of-age years, and I never became an Italian-American as an adult, because I was already developing my own unique ethnicity, heritage, and religion, which simply was not being acknowledged by most people, but not by all people. Today, in fact, I also share many traits of so-called micronationalists, but in truth I’m also not fully accepted by most of them, and I’m very different, because micronationalists 99.9 percent of the time are actually nationals of an imaginary nation. I, on the other hand, am religiously a Cesidian (my curia or religion), and at least two different active churches or religious organisations today recognise that religious identity; and ethnically I am a UMMOA national (my nationality), and at least three active secessionist organisations, and even one US government agency, recognise today that ethnic identity, even recognise it as an internationally-distributed polity. While I have been considered US American or Italian-American for most of my life by most people, I was later adopted by both Native Americans and Native Africans. I have also proudly served as the real, and perhaps first Counsellor of Antarctica for one of Antarctica’s actual 11 Natives, and I have also served an Asian INGO internationally with great distinction. So under a purely legalistic perspective I’m a native-born American citizen, yet interesting enough I cannot legally become the next president of the United States! I’m also an undocumented European citizen, despite being entirely European by blood. More realistically, however, I am actually a Native American national by adoption by a Native American traditional organisation, that is acknowledged by some recognised Native American tribes, bands, or traditional communities. Moreover, I am also a fully documented African national, despite not having a drop of African blood. In conclusion, therefore, today I’m a 53 year old Cesidian religiously, a unique form of Judeo-Christianity. I am also a United Micronations Multi-Oceanic Archipelago or UMMOA national, a recognised internationally-distributed polity. I am also an aboriginal Sabellian, which is not the same thing as a non-indigenous Roman, Italian, or European of today, people who actually treat me like an alien; and I am also fully accepted by some Native Americans and Native Africans, and I have proudly served some Native Antarcticans and Native Asians. I am the Bishop and Primate of my church and religion; the Governor and Guru of my nation and growing continent (UMMOA-GEO); the Paramount Chief of my confederation of tribes (Ryamecah Confederation); and the Chief Magistrate of my race (Hernici Tribe). I am also an independent scholar of some renown, and the author of several books. – *HMRD Cesidio Tallini, Sachem Wequarran Archimedes, or BCT:* http://wikinfo.org/w/index.php/Cesidio_Tallini and http://bct.pe – *Cesidian Church:* http://cesidian.ch – *United Micronations Multi-Oceanic Archipelago (UMMOA):* http://ummoa.com and http://ummoa.info – *Ryamecah Confederation:* http://ryamecah.com – *Hernici Tribe:* http://hernici.com – *Global Earth Oceans (GEO):* http://geoceans.com and http://geo.casa

You could have fooled me, and my precious fig trees! Or Nostradamus, who predicted a mini-ice age around the time of the Second Coming. Yes, besides the colder weather, Nostradamus also mentions a very unusual person concerning the Second Coming, and even uses seven different names to describe him. However, neither climatologists know about that, nor theologians, it seems. An Antarctic blast expected to hit Australia this weekend will have people shivering like it’s 1999. The freezing front, which began to roll-in across the east of Australia on Friday afternoon, will deliver conditions not seen in 15 years, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.

West Papua Wins Observer Status in Melanesian Spearhead Group

This news summary is brought to you by *Intermicronational World * (IW), a government news agency. IW is happy to serve as a genuinely alternative news source. IW has existed since October 2011, but was forced to expand its services in March 2014 because of a lack of scholarly or scientific articles about micronations, and has since become a daily source of news, and not just about micronations. The government behind IW is the United Micronations Multi-Oceanic Archipelago (UMMOA, UGV, or GV). UMMOA® is a United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) registered trademark, which means it is recognised by at least one US government agency. The USPTO also recognises the UMMOA trademark as indicating a political organisation concerned with international affairs, and the UMMOA is also a lower stage Third World nation, or a quasi-state, which claims the new small continent of Global Earth Oceans (GEO). Because the UMMOA is indeed concerned with international affairs, and it was being ignored even by international NGOs whose work is entirely complementary, since April 2015 GEO has helped to expand two state of New Jersey NGOs through the funding their application for US federal NGO status. In the future, through these two organisations, or their partners or affiliates, GEO hopes to begin to greatly alleviate the problem of homelessness globally. Through this mission GEO will behave like a de facto state. The UMMOA-GEO nation-state also supports the work of several other NGOs in the fields of freedom of the press; in the fields of environmental, linguistic, religious, and indigenous peoples’ preservation; and in the fields of human and nonhuman rights. *West Papua Wins Observer Status in Melanesian Spearhead Group* The 53 year old struggle for West Papuan independence achieved a victory on June 26, 2015 with the granting of observer status in the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG).
