Hutt River Province citizens in regalia
Hutt River Province - in Western Australia, was ruled by Prince Leonard (born Leonard George Casley) and his wife Princess Shirley. Prince Leonard withdrew his West Australian wheat farm from the Commonwealth of Australia in 1970. He had disputed with the government over the amount of wheat he was allowed to harvest on his almost 7500 hectare property. He served documents of secession on the state premier, the prime minister and the governor general, but offered Her Majesty the Queen the chance to stay on as head of state. (Few Australian micronations have ever tried to throw off the monarchy- only the elected government.)
