INTRODUCTION
The Republic of Lomar is a
non-territorial nation, i.e. a supranational entity with the
attributes of a traditional state, except for a localized territorial
imperium. The
Republic of Lomar is mainly known as a passport issuing entity for
stateless individuals and in the press as the foremost and fastest growing micronation worldwide. Our focus is
clearly set on:
- the defense of Human
Rights worldwide
- the diplomatic
representation of the oppressed and unrepresented
- high level consular
services to our citizens worldwide
- leveraging Internet
technologies (Digital Diplomacy, telecommuting, etc.)
- promoting a complementary
non-territorial approach to citizenship.
As a
non-territorial entity, the Republic of Lomar does not and cannot offer any type of
immigration program to the Republic of Lomar. If you are interested in
getting assistance with a immigration matters, please fill our
immigration assistance form. You will then be referred to qualified
advisors. This clarification is important because of the scandals caused the fraudulent
promises of an htmliring island-nation known as "the Dominion of Melchizedek". The following
restrictions also apply:
- it is not possible to
incorporate business or banking entities within the Republic of Lomar system
- the Republic of Lomar
passport is a valid identity document but still has to gain acceptance as a border
crossing document
- name changes are possible
but the name at birth will always appear on the passport and ID - date and place of birth
cannot be changed
- a notarized or certified
copy of original documents is required to obtain a Lomar passport or
ID.
Unlike most other nations,
the Republic of Lomar maintains a truly symbiotic relationship with its citizens. She
derives her sovereignty (in part) from a large body of citizens worldwide (see statistics)
and in return offers protection and sovereign services.
It is important not to
confuse the Republic of Lomar with many other "micronations", most of which can
be immediately recognized as role-playing operations with a handful of
"citizens" and self-proclaimed kings and emperors. In order to understand the
status and sovereignty of the Republic of Lomar, is useful to be familiar with the history
and status of such nations/institutions as:
- the Order of Malta
- the Holy See (Vatican
City)
- the government of
Tibet-in-exile
- status of embassies
"cut-off" from their home countries
- internet law in general.

(Note: according to U.N. definitions, a micronation is a nation with a population under 1.5 million citizens). The
term is also used to describe nations with very small territories, newly independent
nations and model or imaginary nations). (See http://microstate.org/
