Akhzivland – One Woman nation

Little do we know about the existence of micronations. But if you research, you’ll find out that there are approximately 84 micronations in the world.

Micro nations are small, self-proclaimed landsthat have an ambiguous legal status.

Akhzivland or Achzivland is situated on the western coast of Israel and surprisingly enough, it has just one citizen.
There is a long history of Akhzivland which dates back to the Iron Age. This small land is promoted by the Israel Ministry of tourism all though its legal status remains ambivalent.

Iranian born sailor Eli Avivi was the one to protest against the Israeli Government for demolishing his building in the area and founded Akhzivland. He built a museum and a hostel there and even issues a special stamp for visitors’ passports.

Eli Avivi got the land from government for 99 years and he with his wife lived there until he died on 16^th of May 2018.

Now his wife lives there and takes care of the property. Tourists visit the area and meet her and also enjoy their stay there.

Akhzivland is not considered as a legal country but it does have Independence, Sovereignty, Democracy, National Flag, National Anthem and most importantly Peace.

It is a very small piece of land, but it is really beautiful.
