    If I could be bothered I would totally fly over there and plant my own flag on his land, and then get in an actual war over it! It'd be awesome!

    I'm reminded of Molossia and the various other micronations that spring up from time to time, except those nations are usually in the backyard of whoever "created them". Can't this guy just declare his own property a kingdom like everybody else instead of going to africa?

    I'd bring up the Johnny Cash version, but I suspect the NIN version would be more appropriate in this case.

    Can't he just buy a small piece of land, build a tiny castle or something on it and declare it a micro-nation? Look at Nostalgia Critic's Kickassia. The guy the invade has a micro nation set up in his own yard/house and made it his own kingdom. It is about one acre big. Do something similar. If you can afford to do it get a bigger property and divide part of it into the micro nation and make it her kingdom. Doing a big chunk of land in another country is asinine.

    I was typing mine as you were posting yours. Yeah like we said do something along the lines of Molossia. Just make a tiny chunk of nearby property a micro nation and have her be the princess of that.

    When she grows up, she can be many people's "Little Princess" with the neighbouring countries in exchange for peace.

    Just do what every parent does in this situation, buy her a plastic play castle and princess outfit. I wonder if this is similar to how Paris Hilton's ego started.

    Something tells me she'd have more fun with a costume and a castle jungle gym than she will with a plot of sandy land in the Sudan.

    When I was a kid, I loved playing in the little sandbox in elementary school.

    I often imagined playing in a bigger one.

    I hope I wasn't the only one....

    I will say one thing for the dad, even if rather irresponsible here, he is quite industrious!
