A British artist believes he has discovered a new island in arctic Svalbard. He claims sovereignty, and wants to create his own mini-state.
The retreat of arctic ice is constantly unveiling new land in the Svalbard archipelago. Alex Hartley has dubbed the new islet "Nymark" (new ground, uncharted territory) and has applied to the Governor of Svalbard to be recognized as the owner.
He will be the King and prime minister of a one-man state!!
