Have you ever asked your President/Primeminister for independence?

Question

I am sick of the Primeminister and his cohorts telling me what to do, and I want to make my home free from the United Kingdom. LOL, you might think I'm weird, but I asked the Primeminister whether my road could become independent, with me as the Emperor :)

How cool would that be?! Have you ever done something of that ilk?

Answer 1

Well, it would probably be rather trouble-some.

Assuming they accepted (and didn't send the army/police) then there would much fiddling with passports, making major traffic delays.

You could of course join the European Union and the United Nations, but you'd have to pay membership fees. This is calculated on your industry and income from taxes and such, so then again, it wouldn't be too much.

I've never done it, but fantasised over it.
