A group who bought a Caribbean island have now started their own country, complete with its own national flag, anthem, government and “secret police force”.
Coffee Caye is a 1.2-acre uninhabited tropical paradise off the coast of Belize and is now better known as the Principality of Islandia.
The island, which is shaped a bit like a coffee bean, can be walked in just minutes. But its small size hasn't stopped the micronation from claiming independence.
