This little piece of land known as "The City of London" is like the Vatican in Rome, a separate principality.

Therefore if someone could get me a Jar of Dirt from inside the City of London near the Temple Bar or Bank of England where Common law must still exist in order to incorporate all the Admiralty Courts through out the world, I would glady reimberse them.
I AM NOT JOKING!

The Crown is a corporation sole, a legal entity which can own property and have rights. In the United Kingdom Elizabeth II is currently the post holder, and thus Queen of the United Kingdom. The holder of the position of The Crown will be King or Queen and officially governs the UK. In practice, however, the UK is usually governed by the government derived from the democratically elected parliament, but this is only done 'on behalf of the Crown' and laws are given Royal Assent by the Crown in Parliament.
Admiralty law (also referred to as maritime law)is a distinct body of law which governs maritime questions and offenses.
Originally posted by twitchyprecious few people realize the signifigance of the District of Columbia as a seperate entity.
The U.S. Constitution gives Congress direct jurisdiction for Washington, D.C. While Congress has delegated various amounts of this authority to local government, from time to time, Congress still intervenes in local affairs relating to schools, gun control policy, and other issues. Citizens of the District lack elected voting representation in Congress, though they have three electoral votes in the Presidential elections, giving it more electoral votes per capita than 49 states. Citizens of Washington are represented in the House of Representatives by a non-voting delegate (currently Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC At-Large)) who sits on committees and participates in debate but cannot vote. D.C. does not have representation in the Senate. Attempts to change this situation, including the proposed District of Columbia Voting Rights Amendment, have been unsuccessful.
