Rose Island
In 1968, engineer Giorgio Rosa established the independent state called "The Isle of Roses" off the shore of Rimini, built on a system outside the territorial waters, with Esperanto as the official language. The Italian authorities did not take it well due to the fact that the micronation was seen as a suitable to not pay taxes on the earnings acquired thanks to the arrival of various tourists and also curious people.
