The fifth micronational Olympics was hosted by the nation of YAN and had nine nations subscribed at first to the competitions, however only 2 nations werer really active on the majority of events, the Kingdom of TwoChairs and the Nation of YAN.
However, the micronational Olympics spirit has survived one more Olympics, as a sign of the new good times that are coming, where people of the world can even start their own nations without suffering repression for their ideals.
The fifth micronational Olympics, on an unbroken link of tradition, perhaps the first common truly successful intermicronational tradition, in hope that many more will come.
The first four micronational Olympics were hosted by the following micronations: started by the republic of Molossia on the year 2000, then carried away by the Kingdom of Torhavn in 2002, then by the kingdoms of Marina and Shireroth in 2004 and by the Moonshine republic in 2006.
So on 2008 the nation of YAN after consulting with previous organisers of this event, achieved the honour of hosting the olympics, where for the first time real medals were given for the winners of the competitions on three categories: bronze, silver, and Gold.
