 Bir Tawil, Between Egypt and Sudan

With both Egypt and Sudan locked in a tussle over claiming a much more valuable piece of land, neither of it wants to assert its control over Bir Tawil. Created by discrepancies from colonial-era maps, this piece of land lies between the two countries. Holding a record of the only unclaimed inhabitable place on Earth, several individuals have tried to gain control over this and establish a new micronation. After several such attempts, the passage to this place was cordoned off with individuals from either side being denied entry.
