Forewick Holm
Island in western Shetland, ScotlandForewick Holm is a 1-hectare (2.5-acre) island in the Sound of Papa, between Papa Stour and the Mainland of Shetland. It lies adjacent to a skerry called Scarf's Head, and the two are connected at low tide. Forewick Holm has gained notoriety through its association with Stuart "Captain Calamity" Hill, who claims that the island is a sovereign micronation named "Forvik". The Forvik project's stated purpose is to show Shetlanders what they could achieve if they asserted their legal rights and seceded from the United Kingdom.
