Flag of the State of Waveland (Rockall), Scotland Aufkleber
Rockall (/ˈrɒkɔːl/) is a 17.15 m (56 ft 3 in) high, uninhabitable granite islet in the North Atlantic Ocean. It is 301 kilometres (187 statute miles; 163 nautical miles) west of Soay, St Kilda, Scotland; 423 kilometres (263 statute miles; 228 nautical miles) northwest of Tory Island, Ireland; and 700 kilometres (430 statute miles; 380 nautical miles) south of Iceland. The nearest permanently inhabited place is in North Uist, 370 kilometres (230 mi; 200 nmi) east in Scotland's Outer Hebrides.
In 1997, three members of the environmentalist organisation Greenpeace occupied the islet for 42 days. Among the three was John Vidal, unrelated to Vidal mentioned in a previous visit.
The Greenpeace team called Rockall Waveland, to protest against oil exploration. Greenpeace declared the islet to be a "new Global State" (as a spoof micronation) and offered citizenship to anyone willing to take their pledge of allegiance. The British Government's response was to state that "Rockall is British territory. It is part of Scotland and anyone is free to go there and can stay as long as they please".
