The Republic of All Blacks fans who want to stay up after their bed time to watch the All Blacks
On the morning of Saturday, 17th August, 5 year old New Zealander and emphatic All Blacks fan, Louie Paine, was told the All Blacks vs Australia Bledisloe Cup decider at Eden Park was past his bed time. His response "That's not fair" was rebutted by his father with "Sorry mate, you don't make the rules".

So Louie decided to make the rules. He turned his family home and everything within the property boundaries into a micro nation appropriately called 'The Republic of All Blacks fans who want to stay up after thier bed time to watch the All Blacks'.

Not surprisingly, the one rule of his new nation is: All Blacks fans can stay up as late as they want to watch the All Blacks.

The flag of his nation is the All Blacks logo and the national anthem is the Haka. All are welcome in his nation however they enforce a strict border policy of not letting in anyone wearing yellow.

Ironically, on the first day of his new principality, Louie was so tired from building his new nation that he fell asleep on the couch before kick-off.
