Rich people trying to buy land for their own slice of paradise goes way back.
Solano County is recent history, young squire.
I go back to the Free State project from 2001, same song and dance.
Or the non-government wet dream of Sealand off the coast of England in 1987, ditto.
And if one wants to go even more old school than that, look at the rich Confederate plantation owners that went to Brazil after the CSA fell in 1865. You can even go down to the town of Americana every year and celebrate the Confederacy! These fuckers wanted to deny that they lost so badly that they created a false reality in Brazil.
