ABOUT US

Occitania, officially the Popular Union of Occitania and also known by the acronym UPO, is a self-declared independent nation-state, commonly qualified to a micronation by foreign observer, located all around the world, in the Midi, Iberian Peninsula, British Isles, Oslofjord, Honshu Island, Korean Peninsula and in the Venezuelan Coastal Range.
Occitania was created by Babou Chkaya on September 15, 2015. The federation was modeled on the USSR and included some territories. As time went, the UPO opened up on the outside world, expanded and changed its political model to arrive at the current model, create during the renovation of the political system campaign.
The micronation is an asymmetric federation, it means that the federal members (calls federal subject) have more or less autonomy, depending of their constitutional statutes. The federal subjects are grouped by "constituencies". Power is exercised by a President/Prime Minister duo. The first is elected directly by the people and exercises its prerogatives, the second is the leader of the legislative majority, together they create the government. The parliament, the Vergadering is the unicameral national legislature of Occitania, it passes all laws, write and amended the constitution and supervises the work of the government.
The Occitanian Commonwealth, a intergovernmental organisation where the members share strong diplomatic, historical, political or cultural ties with Occitania is the most important international organisation of the country. Occitania is also a full member of the GUM (since June 12, 2017), of the International Agricultural Development Pact and Observer of the MicroFrancophonie.

Actually, the size of Occitania is 3,8 km², the population is 80, the currency is the Occitanian Franc and our working languages are French, Spanish, Catalan and English but we speak many more!
