Kugelmugelball is a micronationball located in Lower Austriaball, an regionball of Austriaball.
History
It was founded in 1976 after disputes with artist Edwin Lipburger and Austrian police after they argued over building permits and restrictions over a spherical house in 1971. He declared himself president, made stamps and currency, and even refused to pay his taxes. 3 years after he founded Kugelmugel, he was arrested. In June 1982, the house was moved into the Prater park, near the Hauptallee, and enclosed by eight-foot-tall barbed-wire fences. Lipburger died in January 2015 but the Republic officially holds a population of over 650 non-resident citizens. The current president is Edwin's son, Nikolaus.
Fun fact: His name literally means "ball bump" as the word "Kugel" means "ball" or "sphere" in German, and the word "Mugel" is an Austrian German expression for "bump" or "hill on a field". As he is literally a sphere house.
