Earlier this week saw a new Territory claimed by the Empire of Austenasia in Australia.
The new land claim, Western Jarrahview, is comprised of an uninhabited roughly 155,000 square foot wooded area.
The area was claimed by the now Lord Daniel Roscoe, who has been appointed Governor of the new territory.
An Imperial Decree accepting the claim and officially annexing Western Jarrahview was promulgated by Emperor Jonathan I on the evening of January 5th. However, with the difference in time zones, this was past midnight on January 6th in Western Jarrahview, which will be considered its official date of foundation.
Western Jarrahview is only the second land claim of Austenasia in Australia, or in Oceania as a whole. The first, New South Scotland, became an Austenasian Crown Dependency in January 2013.
