The Grand Dominion of Bauralis claims several real territories located in Antarctica and northern Quebec (Canada).
These lands are categorized under two distinct regimes:
- 🧊 Protected: closed, inviolable territories
- 🌨️ Accessible: territories open to observation or integrated
¶ ✦ Claim Status
⚠️ None of these claims are recognized by any state or international organization.
In Antarctica:
- The lands were personally claimed by Léon I in a private capacity in 2012.
- This act aligns with the Antarctic Treaty (1959) which prohibits state claims but allows peaceful non-sovereign initiatives.
In Quebec:
- The northern territories are claimed for their climatic stability and structural role within the Dominion’s organization.
