Statement of Sovereignty
The Republic of Soundland is a sovereign and independent nation, and is entitled to all the rights and duties of a state, including the right to exercise our sovereignty over our territory. We further affirm our status as a state and our explicit basic international rights in accordance with the principles set forth in the Montevideo Convention of 1933.
As a state, Soundland possesses a permanent population, a defined territory, a government, and the ability to engage in foreign relations, meeting all the criteria for statehood under the convention.
