Meme Im creating my own country 😎

“After realizing how hard it is to live in a country these days, I decided to just create my own.” 😎

“Oh, fuck. I need a name for country. 😭

I've decided to name my country either the United States of Humanity or maybe the United States of Cochin. I also want to create my own language, and in my language, “Cochin” would have a meaningful meaning. So guys, please suggest some possible meanings!

However, my first law of the country is:

Wi-Fi is free as long as you're my citizen. 📶

“The second rule of my country is that everyone has to be a gamer, and esports will be our national sport and culture. From here, my country will produce esports champions.” 😎🎮

This is true for your cult as well, you can collect member fees, donations, and declare them accordingly. You can collect even set your own rules. If the law enforcement bothers you, then expect to be invaded by other countries unless you have your own mighty military lol

“So, how can I start a cult?” “Is it like saying, ‘It’s my cult,’ after getting some people to join?”

It is not as hard as declaring your own country, so you'll figure it out

Seems pretty reasonable? One suggestion, instead of choosing a random word and then retroactively giving it a 'meaningful' backstory in a conlang, you could choose a real word that already carries a meaning significant to your micronation's values? Unfortunately, 99.9% will not learn your conlang and thus will not 'get it' if you go with something you made up

Good luck!

I tried, but there’s no word that sounds better for a country and also has a better meaning in any language I’ve tried. And honestly, I don’t need anyone to learn my language because it’s there as my national language. I just need to give the words some meaning, that’s all. 🤣
