SLOWJAMASTAN — Do you sometimes wonder if there are other strange little “nations” out there like Slowjamastan? Well, brace yourself, because the answer is yes—and it’s both thrilling and mildly concerning. Allow us to introduce: Molossia (a proud dictatorship outside of Reno), Sealand (a rusted military oil rig floating off England’s coast), Westarctica (penguin-adjacent), Zaqistan (Utah, sort of), and Duckionary (don’t ask).

 

Molossian President Kevin Baugh and The First lady pay a historic visit to Slowjamastan in 2024. Guv’nahs from The Slowjamastan States of Palmerstan and DonSam Wadi welcome the Molossians.

These self-declared micronations, like our beloved Slowjamastan, come fully loaded with national anthems, passports, flags, currencies, absurd laws, and even more absurd leaders. Naturally, they needed their own summit. Enter: MicroCon—the bi-annual geopolitical fever dream that’s one part United Nations, one part Comic-Con, and one part fever-dream summer camp for heads of state with zero military.

 

MicroCon 2019.

Slowjamastan has proudly (and sometimes loudly) represented at MicroCon Las Vegas, Chicago, and Montreal—where our Sultan brought both style and Croc-free diplomacy to the table.

And now, hold onto your Dubles: MicroCon 27 is coming to San Diego, and yes, The Sultan is hosting. This will not be your average, beige, banquet-hall snoozefest. This will be a diplomatic spectacle set in a literal glass penthouse in downtown San Diego. The gala dinner? Not rubber chicken in a Hilton ballroom. It’s on a yacht. At sea. Because of course it is. And for those ready to take things extra international, there’s a bonus excursion across the border to Puerto Nuevo for lobster—with The Sultan as your personal guide.

 

As part of MicroCon 27, The Sultan will bravely lead an international expedition across the border—not for war or diplomacy, but for lobster and margaritas.

And if that wasn’t enough, there’s a surprise adventure still under wraps. (Hint: it will be just weird enough to question your life choices.)

Now, before you slam your laptop shut in heartbreak thinking this is a private event just for heads of state and people with flags in their living room—here’s the twist: We’re opening up just TEN seats to the general public.

That’s right. Ten lucky souls will get to witness the madness, the majesty, and the microscopic geopolitics of MicroCon 27. The event is already nearly 50% sold out—and we’re still two years out—so if you want in on this historic (and hysterical) gathering of global oddballs, now is your moment.

Reserve your seat HERE before the borders close…or the yacht fills up.

 

 

Oh, and how could we possibly forget this diplomatic plot twist? We’ve joined forces with our très magnifique allies in absurdity—the French micronation of Aigues-Mortes—who will be hosting MicroCon 27: EU in France! That’s right, we’ve gone full “European Union of the Ridiculous.” Because why have one over-the-top international summit when you can have two, separated by 5,800 miles and a wildly different cheese selection? Vive la MicroCon!
