History is so amusing sometimes

Did you know that there was a tiny, self-declared constitutional republic wedged between New Hampshire and Canada for three years, between 1832 and 1835? It was called the Republic of Indian Stream, and it had an elected government and its own constitution, to govern a population of about 300 people

If they told more stories like these in history classes, I would've actually shown up every once in a while. This is one of the greatest things I've ever heard.
