The Sims 3 - Have Your Very Own Sealand!
So, today my friend and I had nothing to do, and needed a good use of our time. Instead, we created a replica of The Principality of Sealand. Enjoy!
Click the picture to go to The Sims 3 Exchange page for Sealand!
Sealand
Sealand was founded as a sovereign Principality in 1967 in international waters, six miles off the eastern shores of Britain. The location of this micronation is Roughs Tower, an island fortress created in World War II by Britain and abandoned post-war. Sealand's national motto: "From the Seas, Freedom."
[Reproduction neither official nor 100% accurate.]
Sealand - In the center of the landing pad, you'll notice a pole. This was placed here to prevent unauthorized landings.
Inside the main deck - Based off of the original military plans, edited with help from pictures and descriptions (the middle room in between the shower room and WC, originally Officer's Bath and WC, was converted into Sealand Security Crew Cabins), and then edited to fit the smaller-than-scale layout. The room with the blue couch you see is based on a photo of the converted officer's cabins.
*The second WC to the inside is technically not supposed to be there anymore.
Inside the legs - As you can see, the insides are fully functional. Unfortunately, there are only five functional levels, whereas Sealand actually has (I believe) seven. In the original military plans, Sealand's legs held generators, switchboards, a magazine, store for fuel oil drums, a bilge pump, and various other wartime necessities on its many levels. Many parts of the leg have been converted into other things, such as the Machine room in Deck Level 2 of the South Deep leg, which was at one point Roy and Joan's stateroom.
Sinking Roughs Tower - As you can see, at the bottom of the legs there is a squarish formation. This actually is at the bottom of Sealand, and was flooded to sink Roughs Tower on the 11th of February, 1942.
OMAKE:
ROFL THIS LOOKS RIDICULOUS.And it's actually next to the house that belongs to our England-sim. Pfbbt.
I hope you guys enjoy it! We had a lot of fun making it and brushing up on our Sealand knowledge!
