The Principality of Sealand
During World War II, the United Kingdom decided to establish a number of military bases, the purpose of which was to defend England against German air raids. These sea forts housed enough troops to man and maintain artillery designed to shoot down German aircraft and missiles. They were situated along the east coast of England on the edge of the English territorial waters.
One of these bases, consisting of concrete and steel construction, was the famous royal fort Roughs Tower situated slightly north of the estuary region of the Thames River. In contrast to the original plan to locate the tower within the sovereign territory of England, this fortress was situated at a distance of approximately 7 nautical miles from the coast, which is more than double the then applicable 3 mile range of territorial waters; to put it briefly, this island was situated in the international waters of the North Sea.
After WWII ended, the troops were withdrawn from all bases by the British Admiralty. None of them was ever used by the United Kingdom again, leaving the forts deserted and abandoned. Except for the aforementioned fortress, the bases were subsequently pulled down. Fort Roughs Tower, situated at the high seas, had been deserted and abandoned.
This paved the way for occupation. On 2 September 1967, a former British Army officer, Major Paddy Roy Bates formally occupied the island and settled there with his family. After intensive discussions with skillful English lawyers, Roy Bates proclaimed the island his own state. Claiming jus gentium, he bestowed upon himself the title of Prince and the title of Princess to his wife and subsequently made the state the Principality of Sealand. Roy Bates, henceforth Roy of Sealand, exerted state authority on the island and thus was an absolute sovereign. The royal family and other persons that have declared loyalty to Sealand have occupied Sealand ever since.
Until 2006 Sealand did not have a worship space although a few Services had been held there under the aegis of the Church of England. After a fire in June 2006 the reconstruction work included the provision of a new Chapel. The ecclesiastical jursidiction was removed from the Church of England, in accordance with Sealand's independence from Britain, and placed with the Anglican Independent Communion, Province of the British Isles and Europe.
The Anglican Church of Sealand was constituted on 12th October 2006. Responsibility for the Chaplaincy will be announced when another appointment is made.
