A 'sovereign territory'
can presumably only be sovereign in the legal
sense, if it's recognised by
other sovereign territories. Sealand and Hutt
River Province also claim to
be sovereign territories, but unfortunately
(for them) they're recognised
by no-one else. The likes of Northern Cyprus
and Palestine lie somewhere
in between as they're recognised by some
countries, but not
others.
