Aloysius Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 I have a dream. A dream of One Small Catholic Kingdom in this crazy mixed up world of ours. Some say I'm crazy, I say let's stop thinking rationally and MAKE IT HAPPEN! I'm ready. I'm psyched. We'll have a small island. We'll havta become experts at fishing and stuff. In this kingdom we will trade goods, there will be no currency. Help me find the best Island to start this in [url="http://www.vladi-private-islands.de/sales_islands/sites/worldmap_e.html"]http://www.vladi-private-islands.de/sales_...worldmap_e.html[/url] At first, all we will be is a bunch of people living on an Island, certainly not recognizable as a country. But we will grow stronger and arise, and one day declare ourself an independent nation. On this island, life will be simple. We will be governed by a simple monarchy, and we will trade goods. Everyone will have to do their part, be it hunting or fishing or building. This is to be Athanasia, we will be contra mundum insomuch as the world has complicated things, we will simplify them and rely on our Lord to sustain us. You think I can do it? Help me. You think I can't do it? Watch me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 20,000,000 Euros, though. That's prolly alot in USD of course, as well. But seriously, if we stay on God's side how could we not be able to get it? I'm ready. I'm psyched. Let's make this a reality. Don't think it can't be done. Come on board, there's alot of work to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin D Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 If I ever get rich, I'll most likely buy an island. Though I doubt it'll become it's own nation, considering that's illegal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloysius Posted June 10, 2004 Author Share Posted June 10, 2004 Since when. Nay-sayers shall see our rise to power. Then they will know. But we're simply starting off as a group of people who live on an island in a community. We will run as if we're our own country, just not act internationally. Since when is it illegal to start your own country? I never heard of such perpostury. We have the right to start a new kingdom, we're not gonna conquer anyone but simply use land that we own to be a kingdom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that many of these islands are considered part of a country or state [b]"Spain, Maine, California"[/b] and etc. Aren't the islands along the coasts of the US, part of the US?

voiciblanche Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Al - when do you think you'll have money for this. I mean, it [i] could [/i] happen, but we need like a five-year plan or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aloysius Posted June 10, 2004 Author Share Posted June 10, 2004 I like that one as well! Alright, well first we're going to live on it as citizens of whatever country it technically belongs to. BUT: we'll eventually go into negotiations with that country asking for independence. The entire island will be our private property, we'll be able to run it like the kingdom we want it to be even while we're citizens of Italy or Spain or whatever. Anyway, I'm going to finish High School and Colledge all the while trying to save up as much money as possible. I'm gonna need a better supply of money than that, though, cause an island will be expensive wherever it is. We'll need contributers. Right now I have to prepare for the job of creating and ruling a small kingdom with my education, this is the perfect time for me to begin preparing. By 2015 we will have our eyes set on exactly what country we want and have a base amount of money in order to get it. By 2020 hopefully we will own the island. That is our goal.

voiciblanche Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 20,000,000 euros converts to more than 24,000,000 USDs. Who are you looking to for contributions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aloysius Posted June 10, 2004 Author Share Posted June 10, 2004 LOL... i donno Seeing as this is a 10 year scope, we're gonna havta do massive fund raising. It prolly won't be that exact island, or that exact price, cuz we're looking 10 or 15 years into the future. I'll sign people up who want to raise funds on their own, and i'll procede with fund raising hopes. We'll contact Catholic businesses and stuff, maybe we'll produce a product to earn money. I'll come up with an idea for a product before this year is out, and it'll be available for sail within 2 years. This isn't a time to think practically, this is the time to build on a dream. I swear this will be reality if it takes my life's work to acheive it. Together in Christ, we are strong. Together in Christ, we can make this happen.

Aloysius Posted June 10, 2004 Author Share Posted June 10, 2004 This one's only 2 million australian dollars, which is i believe less than 2 million american. So it's prolly more feasable.
