PAPPARELLI

Joseph Papparelli (me) is the President (and Most Holy Emperor) of the INDEPENDENT NATION OF PAPPARELLI.

The INDEPENDENT NATION OF PAPPARELLI came into being when independence was declared in early 2002. Independence was declared when I ran out into the street and loudly said, "I do declare, I am independent for now and all eternity." The government never tried to stop me so I became an independent nation by default. It says you can do that in International Law.

Independence was confirmed in a referendum just last month. The question "Should the INDEPENDENT NATION OF PAPPARELLI be fully sovereign from Canada?" was referred to Joseph Papparelli (me) and my dog MISTER BIFFY. We both voted "yes" in a narrow victory. As such, victory was assured and October 22 was recognized as INDEPENDENT NATION OF PAPPARELLI INTERNATIONAL INDEPENDENCE DAY. We celebrate (or plan to) this every year.

Laws and stuff have to be passed with a majority of votes in the "house of voting." This is when my fingers vote and I count them (I get to break all ties as President though). Many things are passed 10-0 (such as a motion to go to war against Luxembourg), although two of the fingers can be troublemakers and sometimes vote against me.

There is no picture of Papparelli here because is everyone knew where I lived, they would want to move here. If you want to be a dual citizen, you will be able to apply soon. We welcome applications from all over the world (except Luxembourg) for dual citizenship. At least, we will soon.

The INDEPENDENT NATION OF PAPPARELLI has one main enemy: Luxembourg. They quite simply have to go, but you probably knew this already of you're reading this web page.
