Hutt River

The Princiality of Hutt River, formerly the Hutt River Province before 2006, was a self-declared country in Western Australia. In a dispute with the Australian government, farmer Leonard Casley tried to secede from Australia in 1970.
 * Its first stamps were a wildflowers set issued in 1973, inscribed HUTT RIVER PROVINCE PRINCIPALITY. This and following issues are probably better considered as labels. While a very few postally used covers do exist, they are highly suspect and are assumed to have been accidentally allowed through international mails.
 * Following releases are mosrtly inscribed HUTT RIVER PROVINCE.
 * No issues are recorded for 2006, but beginning in 2007, the inscription was changed to HUTT RIVER PRINCIPALITY.
 * The Principality was dissolve in August 2020 although its website for stamp sales still exists, with most issues still available.
