Nathan as a gay princess.

Nathan S. entered micronationalism in 2002, but was not known in the Micras Sector until 2004 when Natopia joined the MCS.

Nathan is most widely known for founding Natopia. However he has been a citizen of many different nations throughout his 10 year career as a micronationalist including: Antica, Shireroth, Stormark, Gotzborg, Lavalon, and [Elwynn]] among several others.

In 2009 Nathan received a prestigious FNORD, the Shane Odlum Award for Overall Achievement for his continued development and achievements in Natopia. Sources close to him report that he never felt more vindicated by any other award in his life, and his voice was non-characteristically lacking sarcasm.

He is often very transparent, seldom separating his microlife from his real one, using his real name and incorporating important personal issues such as gay rights into his projects and being one of the more outspoken gay micronationalist.
