There is no Sultan of Niihau Micronation ruling it...

As Pharaoh of the Micronation I offer “Free Citizenship” to Book Patrons on Amazon (Internet website).  Other Micronations like Nova Roma offer Citizenship annually if people pay membership dues or “Taxes” as they call it, otherwise a person remains a “Plebe” or non-citizen.  I am also a member of that Micronation from some years ago.  Residents of the Island of Niihau (which I never visit due to legal issues with the State of Hawaii) are Noble Class Citizenship, and are “Tax exempt from the Micronation.”  Residents are mostly Native Hawaiians ancestry whose ancestors migrated there on this Island Reservation.  A Bird Sanctuary is on a smaller island nearby (Lehua). 

The Island has a 30% Zoning Law for development; the other 70% is Zoned Conservation and cannot be developed until rezoned.  This started in the mid 1960s.  The Island lacks modern development due to rising Sea Levels from Climate Change, and the residents’ caretakers (the Robinson Family) who are Republican.  The Island is mostly used for a Ranch by a Hawaiian Company.  There are wild animals on the Island, some houses for residents, and other buildings.  As a symbol for a Micronation, this matters little.  Most Micronations are symbolic locations like Rocks above Sea Level.  Economic Development was implemented within the last decade, for purchasing island companies in place of building on the Island itself.  This is for the Residents’ Economy.  Elder Residents made expensive shell leis for sale and the leased Military Installation funded their previous Economy.  Tourism is not part of this Economy as far as I am aware.  Pollution may exist on some beaches despite wanted a Recycling Center.  Electricity is via Solar and Wind Generators.  Electric cars are a future concern as is sea levels.
