France: The principality of Laàs en Béarn | Focus on Europe
- 10 years ago
Europe may soon have a new principality: Laàs en Béarn. The mayor of Laàs plans to declare its independence on January 1st, 2015. The village of Laàs in southwestern France has just 111 residents. But if it becomes an independent principality, it will have its own coat-of-arms and postage stamps, and even its own diplomatic corps. The plan is being spearheaded by Jacques Pédehontáa, mayor of Laàs.
