Personal life

Craitman was born Adám Perryman in Devon, in 1990, and lived in a small village near Totnes until 2010, when he left for university. He attended school at King Edward VI Community College in Totnes, and also remained at the school's sixth form centre for his A-levels. After studying for four years, he eventually successfully applied for university and went-on to study BA (Hons) Media Communications and Screen Studies at Glyndŵr University in Wrexham, Wales.

Craitman founded Craitland in December 2002 as an extension to his love for different countries' cultures and languages, and a desire to start his own. Prior to 2006, when Craitland claimed on Micras, the nation's sole claim was Craitman's parental home; a region which remains as the Craitish Earth-based embassy today.

Craitman's passion for sport is well-known throughout both the simulationist and secessionist sectors, and he takes active roles within a number of virtual sports organisations; most notably the FMF. In his personal life, Craitman has played football, handball and cricket for different teams at different levels.
