Whole countries got away with it a while ago?

Any revolutionaries on here got any advice?
Wasn't there a precedence for this set in Canada during world war 2, where the princess of an occupied country bailed out to canada, and for her to be declared sovereign they had to "make" the local area officially another country?
Historians on board?


knew I'd read it somewhere:
Quote:
In Canada Princess Juliana promoted the International Red Cross and the war effort. She made a number of visits to the United States and became good friends with President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was proud of his Dutch ancestry. A remarkable event was the birth of her third daughter, Princess Margriet, in January 1943. Also because many had deemed it likely that this time it would be a Prince and therefore Heir Apparent, the Canadian hospital room in which the child was born had been declared an extraterritorial area, to ensure that this new member of the House of Orange-Nassau would only have Dutch nationality.

So there you go, declare the garage a sovereign state of Italy and don't forget to take your passport with you.
