Republic of Gulating
Republic of Gulating is an artistic project with serious political aims. 4 June 2005 Western Norway was declared an independent state by the name "Republikken Gulating".〔(''A list of micronations (the date 7th June is wrong)'' )〕 It took place during a regional festival, "Kystfestivalen 61° Nord"〔(''News article from local paper, in Norwegian'' )〕〔(''News article from local paper, in Norwegian, page 12'' )〕 in Gulen, north of the regional capital Bergen. The instigator behind the project, Mr Oyvind Heitmann, was declared «pride minister» by Mr Magnor Midtun, local historian and acting as president of the region in a Viking play, Hakonarspelet. The project wants to improve the status of the culture in the area, and make it more known both in Norway and abroad. The final aim is to increase the independence in the region through political and democratic influence.
==The region==
The republic covers the Western and Southern Norway (the counties Hordaland, Sogn og Fjordane, Rogaland, Vest-Agder, Aust-Agder), the regions Sunnmøre, Valdres and Hallingdal, and the islands of Shetland and Faroes. This was the domain of the law of Gulating in 1267, which was the foundation for the old "Republic of Gulating" in around four centuries. In addition, the republic looks towards an association with the historical regions of Telemark and Numedal, which had no firm connection to any of the law domains in Norway. The last two areas are also important parts of the stronghold of the nynorsk language, which is a key element in the "Western" identity in Norway,〔''Map of the official language forms of Norwegian municipalities as of 2007 with Nynorsk in cyan and Bokmål in orange''〕 thus the Republic of Gulating declared itself the world's first "nynorsk country".
Torill Selsvold Nyborg has been an eager spokesperson for a new regional level in the Government of Norway, and in 2005 she chaired Vestlandsrådet,〔(''Vestlandsrådet, the joint political council'' )〕 an advisory political council for the four main counties in the region. She then accepted a visit from "pride minister" Øyvind Heitmann from Republic of Gulating.
