If indeed the platform is on the seabed, the water surrounding the platform can’t be that deep. Sealand could have demolished concrete building materials brought by barge to the location and an actual Island built the way China has been building islands in the Spratley Islands. It would take time and $$ but it’s certainly feasible. It can also extol its fishing rights by contract to bring in revenue (and food).

Great channel and obviously well researched. But there is no such thing as the Royal Army in Britain. The Army as a whole can trace its origins back to the first British professional Army raised by Parliament under Oliver Cromwell. Yes, Regiments and Corps have been granted the title Royal either due to their charter, which raised them stating such, or as an reward for service, but the army itself is simply the British Army. The Royal Navy and Royal Air Force are Royal because they were raised as a whole by Royal Charter.
