Micro Nation is an Australian multi-platform comedy series which screens on Eleven. It first screened on 15 October 2012 at 6.25pm.
The series is written and created by Andrew Garrick (Head Writer), David Harmon, Ben Jenkins, Alexandra Lee, Mark Sutton and Adam Yardley. It is directed by Andrew Garrick and produced by Linda Ujuk with executive producer Maria Michael.
The series is set on the forgotten island micronation of Pullamawang and follows the adventures of its young citizen Emma who desperately wants to leave.
When Australia federated in 1901, the island of Pullamawang forgot to mail in their paperwork, and they remained a separate country. Over the years, they’ve created their own customs and rules of government without anybody outside the town really noticing.
Following the discovery of diamonds, egos, aspirations and greed are sent skyrocketing. It all culminates in an explosion of nationalistic fervour as Pullamawang declares war on Australia.
