start from scratch
Engineering experts are always full of whimsy. He likes to invent new things by himself, such as making his own planes and cars. His hobby caused him a lot of trouble. Once he accidentally hurt his girlfriend's father's eyes because he modified the TV set, making him an ex-boyfriend. His invention was fined several times by the police because he didn't get a road permit.
My ex-girlfriend is a professor of international law. She often doesn't understand the man's violation of the rules. She knows that the other person is very clever, but it is a pity that this person's cleverness has not been brought into play.
She teaches students natural law in class, telling them that the idea of natural law is that evil law is illegal, and that person happens to come to her class, which strongly supports the view that evil law is illegal. His ex-girlfriend told him helplessly that this is no reason for you to ignore traffic rules.
This man has long hated Italy's lengthy approval procedures and ubiquitous conservative rules in the 1960s. He told his ex-girlfriend that he might be able to create a world and define his own rules.

As a doctor of engineering with strong hands-on ability, he quickly came up with specific measures to build a maritime country, invented a device to support offshore platforms, and applied for a patent. In order to avoid a sovereignty dispute with the country, he built this platform on the high seas.
His best friend is also a person who comes up with crazy ideas from time to time. When the man invited him to build a Thai king, he agreed without hesitation and generously provided financial support.
They built a simple house on a 400-square-meter platform, which solved the problem of water supply and power supply on the island, and named this place "Rose Island and Country".
The island gradually attracted the attention of the residents nearby, and everyone regarded it as a novel place. The man invited all like-minded people to come here and issued passports to others as long as they agreed to join Rose Island.
A well-known political commentator without nationality came to this island, and he soon made Rose Island famous all over Italy-as the king of Thailand, people could live there freely.
One day, my ex-girlfriend also passed by this island. When she met the man, she told him that it was no different from a free bar at sea, and it was not his claim to build a new world.
From then on, this man made up his mind to build a real country.

Fight for the new world
Rose Island and China are in a historical period in which the world is changing, the civil rights movement is on the rise and various ideological trends are surging. People all over the world have such a question: "What kind of world is a better world?"
As a result, Rose Island and China made the front pages of the world's major newspapers, occupying the headlines together with the Cold War and regional conflicts. With the increasing number of residents in Rose Island and China, the male owner carefully inspected the conditions for the founding of the country and prepared to let Rose Island and China gain recognition from others.
Perhaps, this person took the following information:
The Montevideo Convention on the Rights and Duties of States specifies in detail a series of criteria for the legality of a country in international law. These criteria include clear territory, permanent population, government and diplomatic relations with other sovereign countries.
It turns out that population and territorial area are not fixed standards for the founding of the country. Boyfriends are eager to try, set up a government with only a few people, prepare to submit an application for founding a country to the United Nations and the European Council, and prepare to develop diplomatic relations with neighboring countries.
The Italian government didn't care when it learned the news. It was not until the Secretary-General of the United Nations called that the government rushed to send investigators to "thoroughly investigate what conspiracy was hidden on the island". However, when the two agents arrived on the island, they were infected by the joyful atmosphere and completely forgot to call to report the investigation results.
A minister thinks that the existence of Rose Island challenges Italy's dignity and calls the host to give up Rose Island and accept the seaside bar provided by the government. Of course, out of patriotism for Rose Island and China, the man refused the invitation.
"Do you really think you have established a country? A warship can blow you up! "
The man rushed to the European Council for help, and his ex-girlfriend was moved by his persistence and was willing to help him prepare the application materials.

echo
The loyal followers of Rose Island and China are willing to live and die with Rose Island in the face of warships. Finally, the Italian government didn't want to be condemned by the world, so it sent someone to take them away with it, and then finally bombed Rose Island and China.
The man who lost his country was sad, but he was encouraged by his ex-girlfriend: "I didn't change the world, I just tried to change it." Later, they stayed together for life. The man was interviewed by TV stations from time to time and published a biography when he was old.
His attempt is always a temptation to those who have heard of it: it is possible to build a new world and make new rules, because some people have already done so. Unfortunately, the history of Rose Island is too short, otherwise they may start to redesign a political system. I wonder if it will reproduce the history of social contract theory.
The change from ex-girlfriend's rejection to appreciation is also an impressive part of this film. People whose beliefs are completely different from their own life beliefs are not necessarily unworthy of their applause.
The first publicist who set foot on the island once wondered, "Why did you do this?"
They replied, "Because we can do it." This is a straightforward answer.
Today, the imprint of Rose Island has not disappeared in the world, and the stamps issued by Rose Island and China in those years have also become extremely collectible.
Tourists like to come to the ruins of Rose Island and China to look for debris. When soaring in the sea, they will feel that they are embracing the same freedom as the dreamer half a century ago.
